Quick guide Debian Setting up wireguard on a server (wireguard-go)
Preface
Since you cannot currently use the standard wireguard on the vs2-free (not active in the kernel), I have taken a look at how you can still use wireguard. In my instructions I have used 2 vs2-free hosts. Of course you can also use the normal wireguard at home.
Structure
Host A vs2-free with booked and configured IPv4. OS Debian 12 (Bookworm) - 64Bit - minimal v4.
Host B vs2-cloud with booked and configured IPv4. OS Debian 12 (Bookworm) - 64Bit - minimal v4.
wireguard-go (Version 0.0.20220316, the current one did not work because Debian does not yet have golang 1.20)
github.com
Preparation
Update Debian packages and reboot if necessary.
Set up host A (ends up with IP 10.0.0.1 via wireguard)
- install golang and wireguard-tools
- Download wireguard-go and make it executable
- Create wireguard keys (private and public)
- create wireguard config (wg0)
Content
- Create start script
Content
- Make script executable
- Create autostart via cron
- Reboot (after which everything is configured)
Set up host B (ends up with IP 10.0.0.2 via wireguard)
- install golang and wireguard-tools
- Download wireguard-go and make it executable
- Create wireguard keys (private and public)
- create wireguard config (wg0)
Content
- Create start script
Content
- Make script executable
- Autostart über cron erstellen
- Reboot (after which everything is configured)
