The wg vpn failover script ensures uninterrupted WireGuard VPN connectivity by dynamically switching to backup peers when the main ones become unreachable. Priority-based route modifications facilitate seamless failover without altering the main network, making it ideal for scenarios like Kubernetes.
-
Run Docker Compose:
docker-compose up -d
-
Ping a Client:
docker exec wg-cli-a ping 10.0.0.2 -
Test Failover:
-
Observe uninterrupted connectivity by stopping the primary WireGuard server:
docker stop wg-srv-a
-
Confirm no packet loss during failover.
-
The failover script dynamically monitors peer availability and activates backup interfaces using route priority. This ensures a rapid response to primary interface failures.
The project includes a Docker Compose configuration for easy deployment and testing. The servers can be started and stopped with simple commands.
