defguard

defguard_wireguard_rs is a multi-platform Rust library providing a unified high-level API for managing WireGuard interfaces using native OS kernel and userspace WireGuard protocol implementations. It can be used to create your own WireGuard:tm: VPN servers or clients for secure and private networking.

It was developed as part of defguard security platform and used in the gateway/server as well as desktop client.

Supported platforms

  • Native OS Kernel: Linux, FreeBSD (and pfSense/OPNSense), Windows
  • Userspace using wireguard-go - Linux, macOS, FreeBSD

Unique features

  • Peer routing - see WGApi docs.
  • Configuring DNS resolver - see WGApi docs.
    • On FreeBSD network interfaces are managed using ioctl.
    • On Linux, handle network routing using netlink.
    • fwmark handling

Windows support

Please note that WireGuard needs to be installed on Windows with commands wg and wireguard available to be called from the command line.

Note on wireguard-go

If you intend to use the userspace WireGuard implementation you should note that currently the library assumes that the wireguard-go binary will be available at runtime. There are some sanity checks when instantiating the API, but installing it is outside the scope of this project.
