      Hi,
      Hi would like to migrate form openvpn to wireguard.
      The way it working at the moment is as follow :


      | bbox | 192.168.1.1 --------------192.168.1.2---| Router | ---10.0.0.0-------| switch |
      -------- | ----------- ----------------
      |
      | 192.168.1.3
      -------------
      | openvpn |
      -------------
      My question : Is it possible to replace in that implementation, the openvpn server by a wireguard server (same place and same IP)

      Thanks for your help

      Websy

          @websy Certainly.

          But why have two boxes (router & Wireguard server). Why not just have a pfSense as a Router/Wireguard server.
          Less power, less latency, simpler setup.

          Love the no fuss of using the official appliances :-)

            Hi, I should change my routeur, and it is not foreseen at the moment for a budget reason.
            I already have an old Pi where openvpn is running.
            How would you configure wireguard on that appliance to play the same role ?
            Aim is to allow connections from outside to reach 10.0.0.0

            Thx for your help

              @websy I’m not familiar with Wireguard standalone on Linux. I just know if from the package in pfSense.
              So I can’t help you here
