How to install and configure WireGuard VPN on Linux

3679

When the Linux kernel 5.6 is released, the Wireguard VPN will be built in. Distributions like Ubuntu 20.04 will be adding this service into their platform even earlier (with kernel 5.4). If you’re looking to get a head start on the WireGuard experience, I want to walk you through the process of getting it up and running.

I’ll be demonstrating on Ubuntu 20.04 daily. As of this writing, WireGuard has yet to make it into the daily release. Fortunately, the developers have made WireGuard available to the standard Universe repository, so installation is simple.
