A Terraform module to deploy a WireGuard VPN server on AWS.
Before using this module, you'll need to generate a key pair for your server and client, and store the server's private key and client's public key in AWS SSM, which cloud-init will source and add to WireGuard's configuration.
- Install the WireGuard tools for your OS: https://www.wireguard.com/install/
- Generate a key pair for each client
wg genkey | tee client1-privatekey | wg pubkey > client1-publickey
- Generate a key pair for the server
wg genkey | tee server-privatekey | wg pubkey > server-publickey
- Add the server private key to the AWS SSM parameter:
/wireguard/wg-server-private-key
aws ssm put-parameter --name /wireguard/wg-server-private-key --type SecureString --value $ServerPrivateKeyValue
- Add each client's public key, along with the next available IP address as a key:value pair to the wg_client_public_keys map. See Usage for details.

- I would strongly recommend forking this repo or cloning it locally and change the
source
definition to be something that you control. You really don't want your infra to be at the mercy of my changes.
- Support multiple clients.
