# WireGuard VPN Setup for Debian 13
## Overview
Personal WireGuard VPN server with IPv4/IPv6 support, client management via `wireguard.sh`, designed for 1 CPU / 1GB RAM VPS.
## Configuration
- **Server Domain**: velkhana.calmcacil.dev
- **Port**: 51820
- **VPN IPv4 Range**: 10.10.69.0/24
- **VPN IPv6 Range**: fd69:dead:beef:69::/64
- **DNS**: 8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4 (Google)
- **Server-side peer configs**: /etc/wireguard/conf.d/client-*.conf (loaded dynamically)
- **Client-side configs**: /etc/wireguard/clients/*.conf (for distribution)
## Installation
### 1. Upload script to VPS
```bash
scp wireguard.sh calmcacil@velkhana.calmcacil.dev:~/
```
### 2. Run installation
```bash
chmod +x ~/wireguard.sh
sudo ~/wireguard.sh install
```
## Usage
### Dynamic client loading
WireGuard automatically loads clients from `/etc/wireguard/conf.d/`:
- Add/remove client configs in `/etc/wireguard/conf.d/client-*.conf`
- Run `sudo ~/wireguard.sh load-clients` to reload
- Changes are applied immediately without restarting
### Add a new client
```bash
sudo ~/wireguard.sh add myphone
```
This creates:
- Server config in `/etc/wireguard/conf.d/client-myphone.conf`
- Client config in `/etc/wireguard/clients/myphone.conf`
- QR code in `/etc/wireguard/clients/myphone.qr`
### List all clients
```bash
sudo ~/wireguard.sh list
```
### Show client config
```bash
sudo ~/wireguard.sh show myphone
```
### Show QR code
```bash
sudo ~/wireguard.sh qr myphone
```
### Remove a client
```bash
sudo ~/wireguard.sh remove myphone
```
## Server Management
### Check WireGuard status
```bash
sudo wg show
```
### Check service status
```bash
sudo systemctl status wg-quick@wg0
```
### Restart WireGuard
```bash
sudo systemctl restart wg-quick@wg0
```
### Reload clients (automatic on add/remove)
```bash
sudo ~/wireguard.sh load-clients
```
### Firewall management
The setup configures nftables with:
- Dual-stack IPv4/IPv6 support in a single ruleset
- Default drop incoming, accept outgoing
- SSH access allowed (port 22)
- WireGuard allowed (UDP 51820)
- Forwarding from wg0 interface allowed
- NAT masquerade for VPN internet access
View firewall rules:
```bash
sudo nft list ruleset
```
Reload firewall:
```bash
sudo nft -f /etc/nftables.conf
```
**Note**: nftables rules are automatically loaded on boot by the nftables service from `/etc/nftables.conf`. No manual intervention required after reboot.
Allow additional ports if needed:
```bash
sudo nft add rule inet wireguard input tcp dport 80 accept # HTTP
sudo nft add rule inet wireguard input tcp dport 443 accept # HTTPS
```
## Manual Client Configuration
To manually add a client, create a file in `/etc/wireguard/conf.d/`:
```ini
[Peer]
# mydevice
PublicKey = <client_public_key>
AllowedIPs = 10.10.69.2/32, fd69:dead:beef:69::2/128
```
Then run:
```bash
sudo ~/wireguard.sh load-clients
```
## Client Setup
### Importing the config
- **Desktop**: Import `/etc/wireguard/clients/<name>.conf` into WireGuard app
- **Mobile**: Scan QR code with WireGuard app, or import config file
### Test connectivity
```bash
# On client
ping 10.10.69.1
ping -6 fd69:dead:beef:69::1
# Check your IP
curl -4 https://ifconfig.me
curl -6 https://ifconfig.me
```
## Troubleshooting
### Check firewall
```bash
sudo nft list ruleset
```
### Check IP forwarding
```bash
sysctl net.ipv4.ip_forward
sysctl net.ipv6.conf.all.forwarding
```
### View logs
```bash
sudo journalctl -u wg-quick@wg0 -f
```
### Check client directory
```bash
ls -la /etc/wireguard/conf.d/
```
### Manual reload if needed
```bash
sudo ~/wireguard.sh load-clients
```
## Notes
- `/etc/wireguard/conf.d/` - Server-side peer configs, loaded automatically by wireguard.sh
- `/etc/wireguard/clients/` - Client-side configs (import to WireGuard apps) and QR codes
- Clients are automatically reloaded when added/removed
- IPv4 and IPv6 NAT are configured (MASQUERADE)
- nftables firewall is configured with dual-stack IPv4/IPv6 support
- Single nftables ruleset handles both IPv4 and IPv6
- SSH (port 22) and WireGuard (UDP 51820) are allowed by default
- Keepalive is set to 25 seconds for better stability
- Server private keys are stored in `/etc/wireguard/server_private.key`
- Server public key is displayed after installation
