Turn a Raspberry Pi into a simple WireGuard* VPN Appliance.
WGAdmin is a free tool that converts a Raspberry Pi single-board computer into an easy-to-use WireGuard VPN Appliance. WGAdmin allows you to create, configure, and manage a simple WireGuard network without messing around with configuration files.
Architecturally, WGAdmin is a configuration management layer wrapped around the standard WireGuard software. It's the missing WireGuard GUI and config generator. Security and heavy lifting is handled by WireGuard natively.
- The default configuration covers the most obvious use cases for WireGuard and can be adjusted manually to go beyond that.
- Functionality is pure vanilla WireGuard. The goal here is just to make things friendlier.
- An initialization wizard generates the server and network config.
- Peers can be added or deleted at any time without interrupting ongoing sessions.
- Peer config files can be downloaded or installed automatically by scanning a QR code.
- Configuration data is kept only locally on the device. No information is sent to the cloud.
- Works with any WireGuard peer using the standard WireGuard client as downloaded from WireGuard.com or your app store.
- Minimum supported configuration is Raspberry Pi OS 10 and a Pi Zero W 2.
- Works great on Pi 3, Pi 4, and many others including compatible 32 or 64 bit.
- Also works on Intel (AMD64) Debian based Linux
WgAdmin is a Beta project in progress. We are open to any and all feedback.
