# Rust Implementation of WireGuard
|
||||
|
||||
## Usage
|
||||
|
||||
Most Linux kernel WireGuard users are used to adding an interface with `ip link add wg0 type wireguard`.
|
||||
With wireguard-rs, instead simply run:
|
||||
|
||||
$ wireguard-rs wg0
|
||||
|
||||
This will create an interface and fork into the background. To remove the interface, use the usual `ip link del wg0`,
|
||||
or if your system does not support removing interfaces directly, you may instead remove the control socket via
|
||||
`rm -f /var/run/wireguard/wg0.sock`, which will result in wireguard-rs shutting down.
|
||||
|
||||
When an interface is running, you may use `wg(8)` to configure it, as well as the usual `ip(8)` and `ifconfig(8)` commands.
|
||||
|
||||
## Platforms
|
||||
|
||||
### Linux
|
||||
|
||||
This will run on Linux;
|
||||
however YOU SHOULD NOT RUN THIS ON LINUX. Instead use the kernel module; see the installation page for instructions.
|
||||
|
||||
### Windows
|
||||
|
||||
Coming soon.
|
||||
|
||||
### FreeBSD
|
||||
|
||||
Coming soon.
|
||||
|
||||
### OpenBSD
|
||||
|
||||
Coming soon.

# Building
|
||||
|
||||
The wireguard-rs project is targeting the current nightly.
|
||||
To build this project obtain nightly `cargo` and `rustc` through [rustup](https://rustup.rs/), then simply run:
|
||||
|
||||
cargo build --release
|
||||
|
||||
To compile wireguard-rs to your current platform.
