Title: WireGuard Road Warrior Setup | Mandatory Private Key?
Post by: dlopezjr on April 14, 2024, 02:08:13 PM

Hello!

I'm going through the "WireGuard Road Warrior Setup" doc but running into issues on Step 1. (https://docs.opnsense.org/manual/how-tos/wireguard-client.html)

The guide states that the "Private key" will auto-generate, but I'm running into an error. It's stating that a "A value is required." for the "Private key" field and won't let me continue.

Is this a bug or a new expected behavior with outdated documentation?

Here is the version I'm on:

Just click on the little cogwheel next to "Public key" and a key pair will be generated.

Thanks Patrick, that solved Step 1. With your help was able to report this and able to get the doc updated: https://github.com/opnsense/docs/issues/553#event-12460614074

Now after step 3 (restarting WireGuard), I lose internet access on all my LAN devices. Someone was suggesting in a thread to checkmark "Disable routes" in the instance configuration. Is that a valid thing I should be doing? The documentation has no info on this.

EDIT:
Here is what the OPNsense config looks like:

Code Select


$ awk -F'=' '/^/ { if ($1 ~ /Key/) print($1 "= <key>"); else print($0); }' </usr/local/etc/wireguard/wg0.conf

"Allowd IPs" 0.0.0.0/0 might be slightly over the top on the sense, if your phone is roadwarrior...
