well holy moly, someone released a what looks to be working allinone script that i could never hope to write in a sane timeframe

WireGuard
Command-line instructions
1. Preparation
Install the required packages. Specify configuration parameters for VPN server.
# Install packages opkg update opkg install wireguard-tools # Configuration parameters VPN_IF="vpn" VPN_PORT="51820" VPN_ADDR="192.168.9.1/24" VPN_ADDR6="fd00:9::1/64"
2. Key management
Generate and exchange keys between server and client.
# Generate keys umask go= wg genkey | tee wgserver.key | wg pubkey > wgserver.pub wg genkey | tee wgclient.key | wg pubkey > wgclient.pub wg genpsk > wgclient.psk # Server private key VPN_KEY="$(cat wgserver.key)" # Pre-shared key VPN_PSK="$(cat wgclient.psk)" # Client public key VPN_PUB="$(cat wgclient.pub)"
3. Firewall
Consider VPN network as private. Assign VPN interface to LAN zone to minimize firewall setup. Allow access to VPN server from WAN zone.
# Configure firewall
uci rename firewall.@zone[0]="lan"
uci rename firewall.@zone[1]="wan"
uci del_list firewall.lan.network="${VPN_IF}"
uci add_list firewall.lan.network="${VPN_IF}"
uci -q delete firewall.wg
uci set firewall.wg="rule"
uci set firewall.wg.name="Allow-WireGuard"
uci set firewall.wg.src="wan"
uci set firewall.wg.dest_port="${VPN_PORT}"
uci set firewall.wg.proto="udp"
uci set firewall.wg.target="ACCEPT"
uci commit firewall
service firewall restart
4. Network
Configure VPN interface and peers.
# Configure network
uci -q delete network.${VPN_IF}
uci set network.${VPN_IF}="interface"
uci set network.${VPN_IF}.proto="wireguard"
uci set network.${VPN_IF}.private_key="${VPN_KEY}"
uci set network.${VPN_IF}.listen_port="${VPN_PORT}"
uci add_list network.${VPN_IF}.addresses="${VPN_ADDR}"
uci add_list network.${VPN_IF}.addresses="${VPN_ADDR6}"
# Add VPN peers
uci -q delete network.wgclient
uci set network.wgclient="wireguard_${VPN_IF}"
uci set network.wgclient.public_key="${VPN_PUB}"
uci set network.wgclient.preshared_key="${VPN_PSK}"
uci add_list network.wgclient.allowed_ips="${VPN_ADDR%.*}.2/32"
uci add_list network.wgclient.allowed_ips="${VPN_ADDR6%:*}:2/128"
uci commit network
service network restart
LuCI Web Interface instructions
1. Installing packages
Navigate to LuCI → System → Software and install the package luci-proto-wireguard.
Optionally install the package qrencode to allow creation of a QR code when creating a peer configuration for simple import onto a phone wireguard client.
2. Restarting services
Navigate to LuCI → System → Startup → Initscripts and click on network → Restart.
3. Add WireGuard Network Interface
To create a new WireGuard interface go to LuCI → Network → Interfaces → Add new interface...
Select WireGuard VPN from the Protocol dropdown menu. Name the interface wg0 (or whatever is preferred) Click on Create Interface to create it and open it for editing
4. Configure the WireGuard Network Interface
In the open edit window of the interface configure the following:
Click on Generate new key pair to populate the private and public keys Listen port: 51820 or preferred port IP addresses: 10.0.0.1/24 or preferred internal VPN IPv4 address for the WireGuard server interface end of the VPN Save this configuration
5. Configure WireGuard Peers
To create a new WireGuard peer configuration go to LuCI → Network → Interfaces → wg0 → Edit → Peers
- Click on Add peer
- Click on Generate new key pair to populate the public and private key fields
- Allowed IPs: 10.0.0.10 or whatever other address you will assign to the client
- Endpoint port: 51820
- Persistent Keep Alive: 25
- Save
Click on Edit for the peer just created
Click on Generate configuration... and under Connection endpoint select:
- If connecting from a publicly accessible IPv4 address the router wan interface IPv4 address
- If connecting from a publicly accessible IPv6 address the router wan interface IPv6 address
- If using a publicly accessible hostname enter as a custom entry
To transfer the peer configuration to the client device either:
- Use a Wireguard client on a phone / tablet that can scan the generated QR code or
- Copy and paste the generated configuration data into a device.conf file for import into a WireGuard client
Once you have saved the changes to the wg0 interface, click Save & Apply on the Interfaces page, then Restart wg0. This is necessary for the new peer list to take effect. “Save & Apply” alone is not enough!
6. Configure Firewall for WireGuard traffic
Go to LuCI → Network → Firewall → General Settings and under Zones add a new zone:
- Name: WireguardVPN (or preferred name)
- Input: accept
- Output: accept
- Intra zone forward: accept
- Masquerading: checked
- MSS Clamping: checked
- Covered networks: wg0
- Allow forward to destination zones: lan and wan
- Allow forward from source zones: lan
- Save
Create rule to allow IPv4 & IPv6 traffic through from internet for connecting from client device using IPv4 (if router has public IPv4 address) or from client device using IPv6 (if router has public IPv6 address available).
Go to LuCI → Network → Firewall → Traffic Rules
- Name: WireGuard-incoming (or preferred name)
- Protocol: UDP
- Source zone: wan
- Source address: -- add IP --
- Source port: any
- Destination zone: Device
- Destination address: -- add IP--
- Destination port: 51820
- Action: accept
- Save, Save & apply
Note: If only IPv4 is being used to connect to the WireGuard server the above firewall traffic rule could be replaced with a Port Forward rule instead.
If you have an upstream ISP router between the Openwrt router configured as a WireGuard server and the internet then port 51820 will also need to be opened up for IPv4/IPv6 traffic to the Openwrt router.
Testing Establish the VPN connection. Verify your routing with traceroute and traceroute6.
traceroute openwrt.org traceroute6 openwrt.org
Check your IP and DNS provider.
- ipleak.net
- dnsleaktest.com
On router:
- Go to LuCI > Status > Wireguard and look for peer device connected with an IPv4 or IPv6 address and with a recent handshake time
- Go to LuCI > Network > Diagnostics and ipv4 ping client device IP eg. 10.0.0.10
On client device depending on wireguard software:
- Check transfer traffic for tx & rx
- Ping router internal lan IP
- Check public IP address in a browser – https://whatsmyip.com – should see public IP address of ISP for the router
Troubleshooting Collect and analyze the following information.
