Add peer (Roadwarrior) to an existing WireGuard connection

Last adaptation to the version: 12.6.0

New:

This article refers to a Resellerpreview
Access: VPN WireGuard

Add peer (remote terminal)

If a WireGuard connection already exists in which the UTM serves as a server, an additional peer can be added that runs on the same port. It uses the same certificate to authenticate the connection as an existing connection.
For additional remote terminals (peers), their own public key is required, as well as their own PSK.

  • The connection status refers exclusively to the WireGuard tunnel, not to the actual reachability of the hosts on the other side of the tunnel (firewall rules, network configuration)!
  • Status Description
    The tunnel is active
    No indication of status can be made until a data packet is transmitted or the keepalive is activated.
    An error has occurred. The connection cannot be established.
