You have found the easiest way to install & manage WireGuard on any Linux host!
- All-in-one: WireGuard + Web UI.
- Easy installation, simple to use.
- List, create, edit, delete, enable & disable clients.
- Show a client's QR code.
- Download a client's configuration file.
- Statistics for which clients are connected.
- Tx/Rx charts for each connected client.
- Gravatar support.
- Automatic Light / Dark Mode (WIP: available in
nightlybuild)
- A host with a kernel that supports WireGuard (all modern kernels).
- A host with Docker installed.
If you haven't installed Docker yet, install it by running:
$ curl -sSL https://get.docker.com | sh
$ sudo usermod -aG docker $(whoami)
$ exitAnd log in again.
To automatically install & run wg-easy, simply run:
$ docker run -d \ --name=wg-easy \ -e WG_HOST=🚨YOUR_SERVER_IP \ -e PASSWORD=🚨YOUR_ADMIN_PASSWORD \ -v ~/.wg-easy:/etc/wireguard \ -p 51820:51820/udp \ -p 51821:51821/tcp \ --cap-add=NET_ADMIN \ --cap-add=SYS_MODULE \ --sysctl="net.ipv4.conf.all.src_valid_mark=1" \ --sysctl="net.ipv4.ip_forward=1" \ --restart unless-stopped \ ghcr.io/wg-easy/wg-easy
💡 Replace
YOUR_SERVER_IPwith your WAN IP, or a Dynamic DNS hostname.💡 Replace
YOUR_ADMIN_PASSWORDwith a password to log in on the Web UI.
The Web UI will now be available on http://0.0.0.0:51821.
