Installation

1. Install Docker

If you haven't installed Docker yet, install it by running:

$ curl -sSL https://get.docker.com | sh
$ sudo usermod -aG docker $(whoami)
$ exit

And log in again.

2. Run WireGuard Easy

To automatically install & run wg-easy, simply run:

$ docker run -d \
  --name=wg-easy \
  -e LANG=de \
  -e WG_HOST=🚨YOUR_SERVER_IP \
  -e PASSWORD=🚨YOUR_ADMIN_PASSWORD \
  -v ~/.wg-easy:/etc/wireguard \
  -p 51820:51820/udp \
  -p 51821:51821/tcp \
  --cap-add=NET_ADMIN \
  --cap-add=SYS_MODULE \
  --sysctl="net.ipv4.conf.all.src_valid_mark=1" \
  --sysctl="net.ipv4.ip_forward=1" \
  --restart unless-stopped \
  ghcr.io/wg-easy/wg-easy

💡 Replace YOUR_SERVER_IP with your WAN IP, or a Dynamic DNS hostname.

💡 Replace YOUR_ADMIN_PASSWORD with a password to log in on the Web UI.

The Web UI will now be available on http://0.0.0.0:51821.

💡 Your configuration files will be saved in ~/.wg-easy
