How to Configure WireGuard VPN on Mikrotik Routerbord | 2024
Welcome,
What is WireGuard !
WireGuard is a Virtual Private Network protocol and free and open-source software that implements encrypted virtual private networks, and was designed with the goals of ease of use, high speed performance, and low attack surface. It aims to be smaller and better performing than IPsec and OpenVPN, two common tunneling protocols
Configuring WireGuard on a MikroTik router involves several steps, including creating WireGuard interfaces, setting up peer connections, and configuring firewall rules. Below is a step-by-step guide:
Prerequisites:
MikroTik router running RouterOS v7.1 or later (WireGuard is only supported in RouterOS 7 and above).
Basic knowledge of networking and MikroTik router configuration.
Step 1: Update RouterOS
Ensure your router is running RouterOS version 7.1 or higher. You can check this by running the following command in the terminal:
perl
Copy code
/system package update print
If an update is available, upgrade the RouterOS:
perl
Copy code
/system package update install
Step 2: Enable WireGuard Interface
Open the MikroTik terminal or use WebFig (the web interface).
Create a new WireGuard interface:
kotlin
Copy code
/interface wireguard add name=wg0 listen-port=51820 private-key=[server_private_key]
Replace [server_private_key] with the private key for the WireGuard server, which can be generated on the MikroTik router using:
kotlin
Copy code
/interface wireguard key generate
Set the MTU (optional, but recommended):
bash
Copy code
/interface wireguard set wg0 mtu=1420
Step 3: Configure IP Address for WireGuard Interface
Assign an IP address to the WireGuard interface:
csharp
Copy code
/ip address add address=10.0.0.1/24 interface=wg0
Replace 10.0.0.1/24 with the IP address and subnet you want to assign to the WireGuard network.
Step 4: Configure Peers (Clients)
For each WireGuard client, configure a peer. This involves adding the public key of the client and specifying allowed IPs:
vbnet
Copy code
/interface wireguard peers add interface=wg0 public-key=[client_public_key] allowed-address=10.0.0.2/32
Replace [client_public_key] with the public key of the client.
allowed-address=10.0.0.2/32 is the IP address assigned to the client.
Step 5: Configure Firewall and NAT
Allow WireGuard traffic through the firewall:
css
Copy code
/ip firewall filter add chain=input action=accept protocol=udp dst-port=51820
If you're routing traffic from the WireGuard clients to the internet, you will need to configure NAT:
css
Copy code
/ip firewall nat add chain=srcnat action=masquerade src-address=10.0.0.0/24
Replace 10.0.0.0/24 with the IP range of the WireGuard network.
Step 6: Configure Client
You need to configure the WireGuard client by generating a private and public key pair. The client configuration file should look something like this:
css
Copy code
[Interface]
PrivateKey = [client_private_key]
Address = 10.0.0.2/32
[Peer]
PublicKey = [server_public_key]
Endpoint = [router_ip]:51820
AllowedIPs = 0.0.0.0/0
PersistentKeepalive = 25
Replace [client_private_key] with the client’s private key.
Replace [server_public_key] with the public key of the MikroTik router's WireGuard interface.
Replace [router_ip] with the public IP of your MikroTik router.
Step 7: Test the VPN Connection
Once everything is configured, try to connect from the WireGuard client. Check the interface status on the MikroTik router:
bash
Copy code
/interface wireguard print
