    Clients lose connectivity after restarting the container when using multiple networks?

    +

    When you attach multiple Docker networks (e.g., wg and a reverse proxy network like traefik or nginx) to the wg-easy container, Docker might assign the network interfaces randomly (e.g., swapping eth0 and eth1). Since wg-easy expects the wireguard interface to act as eth0 and configures POSTROUTING rules for it, connectivity will break if the interfaces are swapped upon container restart.

    +

    To solve this, specify the interface_name and gw_priority explicitly in your docker-compose.yml file to guarantee that the wg network always binds to eth0 and acts as the default gateway.

    +

    Example docker-compose.yml:

    +
    services:
+    wg-easy:
+        # ... other configuration ...
+        networks:
+            wg:
+                interface_name: eth0
+                gw_priority: 1
+                ipv4_address: 10.42.42.42
+            nginx:
+                interface_name: eth1
+                gw_priority: 0
+
+networks:
+    wg:
+        # ... wg network config ...
+    nginx:
+        external: true

    Use the Per-Client Firewall feature to enforce server-side restrictions on what each client can access.

    Requirements: This feature requires iptables (and ip6tables for IPv6) to be installed on the host system.

    1. Enable \"Per-Client Firewall\" in Admin Panel \u2192 Interface
    2. Edit a client and configure \"Firewall Allowed IPs\"
    3. Specify which destinations the client should be allowed to access

    Unlike \"Allowed IPs\" which only controls client-side routing, firewall rules are enforced by the server and cannot be bypassed.

    See the Admin Panel Guide and Client Guide for detailed configuration.

    There are several experimental features that can be enabled by setting the appropriate environment variables. These features are not guaranteed to be stable and may change in future releases.

    Env Default Example Description Notes More Info EXPERIMENTAL_AWG false true Enables experimental AmneziaWG support Planned to be enabled by default in v16 See here"},{"location":"advanced/config/optional-config/","title":"Optional Configuration","text":"

    You can set these environment variables to configure the container. They are not required, but can be useful in some cases.

    IPv6 Caveats

    Disabling IPv6 will disable the creation of the default IPv6 firewall rules and won't add a IPv6 address to the interface and clients.

    You will however still see a IPv6 address in the Web UI, but it won't be used.

    This option can be removed in the future, as more devices support IPv6.

    "},{"location":"advanced/config/unattended-setup/","title":"Unattended Setup","text":"

    If you want to run the setup without any user interaction, e.g. with a tool like Ansible, you can use these environment variables to configure the setup.

    These will only be used during the first start of the container. After that, the setup will be disabled.

    Env Example Description Group INIT_ENABLED true Enables the below env vars 0 INIT_USERNAME admin Sets admin username 1 INIT_PASSWORD Se!ureP%ssw Sets admin password 1 INIT_HOST vpn.example.com Host clients will connect to 1 INIT_PORT 51820 Port clients will connect to and wireguard will listen on 1 INIT_DNS 1.1.1.1,8.8.8.8 Sets global dns setting 2 INIT_IPV4_CIDR 10.8.0.0/24 Sets IPv4 cidr 3 INIT_IPV6_CIDR 2001:0DB8::/32 Sets IPv6 cidr 3 INIT_ALLOWED_IPS 10.8.0.0/24,2001:0DB8::/32 Sets global Allowed IPs 4

    Variables have to be used together

    If variables are in the same group, you have to set all of them. For example, if you set INIT_IPV4_CIDR, you also have to set INIT_IPV6_CIDR.

    If you want to skip the setup process, you have to configure group 1

    Security

    The initial username and password is not checked for complexity. Make sure to set a long enough username and password. Otherwise, the user won't be able to log in.

    It's recommended to remove the variables after the setup is done to prevent the password from being exposed.

    Enable server-side firewall filtering to enforce network access restrictions per client.

    When enabled, each client can have custom \"Firewall Allowed IPs\" configured that restrict which destinations they can access through the VPN. These restrictions are enforced by the server using iptables/ip6tables and cannot be bypassed by the client.

    Experimental Feature

    This feature is currently experimental. While functional, it should be thoroughly tested in your environment before relying on it for production security requirements. Always verify that firewall rules are working as expected using test traffic or by manually inspecting the rules.

    Requirements:

    Note

    Most Linux distributions include iptables by default. If you're running in a minimal container environment, you may need to install the iptables package on the host system.

    Enable this feature if you want to:

    How it works:

    1. Enable \"Per-Client Firewall\" in Admin Panel \u2192 Interface
    2. Edit any client to see the new \"Firewall Allowed IPs\" field
    3. Specify allowed destinations (IPs, subnets, ports) for that client

    Use the Per-Client Firewall feature to enforce server-side restrictions on what each client can access.

    Requirements: This feature requires iptables (and ip6tables for IPv6) to be installed on the host system.

    1. Enable \"Per-Client Firewall\" in Admin Panel \u2192 Interface
    2. Edit a client and configure \"Firewall Allowed IPs\"
    3. Specify which destinations the client should be allowed to access

    Unlike \"Allowed IPs\" which only controls client-side routing, firewall rules are enforced by the server and cannot be bypassed.

    See the Admin Panel Guide and Client Guide for detailed configuration.

    When you attach multiple Docker networks (e.g., wg and a reverse proxy network like traefik or nginx) to the wg-easy container, Docker might assign the network interfaces randomly (e.g., swapping eth0 and eth1). Since wg-easy expects the wireguard interface to act as eth0 and configures POSTROUTING rules for it, connectivity will break if the interfaces are swapped upon container restart.

    To solve this, specify the interface_name and gw_priority explicitly in your docker-compose.yml file to guarantee that the wg network always binds to eth0 and acts as the default gateway.

    Example docker-compose.yml:

    services:\n    wg-easy:\n        # ... other configuration ...\n        networks:\n            wg:\n                interface_name: eth0\n                gw_priority: 1\n                ipv4_address: 10.42.42.42\n            nginx:\n                interface_name: eth1\n                gw_priority: 0\n\nnetworks:\n    wg:\n        # ... wg network config ...\n    nginx:\n        external: true\n

    AmneziaWG is a modified version of the WireGuard protocol with enhanced traffic obfuscation capabilities. AmneziaWG's primary goal is to counter deep packet inspection (DPI) systems and bypass VPN blocking.

    There are several experimental features that can be enabled by setting the appropriate environment variables. These features are not guaranteed to be stable and may change in future releases.

    You can set these environment variables to configure the container. They are not required, but can be useful in some cases.

    IPv6 Caveats

    Disabling IPv6 will disable the creation of the default IPv6 firewall rules and won't add a IPv6 address to the interface and clients.

    You will however still see a IPv6 address in the Web UI, but it won't be used.

    This option can be removed in the future, as more devices support IPv6.

    "},{"location":"advanced/config/unattended-setup/","title":"Unattended Setup","text":"

    If you want to run the setup without any user interaction, e.g. with a tool like Ansible, you can use these environment variables to configure the setup.

    These will only be used during the first start of the container. After that, the setup will be disabled.

    Env Example Description Group INIT_ENABLED true Enables the below env vars 0 INIT_USERNAME admin Sets admin username 1 INIT_PASSWORD Se!ureP%ssw Sets admin password 1 INIT_HOST vpn.example.com Host clients will connect to 1 INIT_PORT 51820 Port clients will connect to and wireguard will listen on 1 INIT_DNS 1.1.1.1,8.8.8.8 Sets global dns setting 2 INIT_IPV4_CIDR 10.8.0.0/24 Sets IPv4 cidr 3 INIT_IPV6_CIDR 2001:0DB8::/32 Sets IPv6 cidr 3 INIT_ALLOWED_IPS 10.8.0.0/24,2001:0DB8::/32 Sets global Allowed IPs 4

    Variables have to be used together

    If variables are in the same group, you have to set all of them. For example, if you set INIT_IPV4_CIDR, you also have to set INIT_IPV6_CIDR.

    If you want to skip the setup process, you have to configure group 1

    Security

    The initial username and password is not checked for complexity. Make sure to set a long enough username and password. Otherwise, the user won't be able to log in.

    It's recommended to remove the variables after the setup is done to prevent the password from being exposed.

    2. Navigate to https://adguard.$example.com$ to begin the AdGuard Home setup.

    Important: Configure AdGuard Home Admin Web Interface Port

    During the initial AdGuard Home setup on the Step 2/5 page, you must set the Admin Web Interface Port to 3000. Do not use the default port 80, as it will not work with the Traefik configuration.

    After completing the setup, the AdGuard UI might appear unresponsive. This is expected. Simply reload the page, and the panel will display correctly.

    If you accidentally left it default (80), you will need to manually edit the docker-compose.yml file for AdGuard Home (/etc/docker/containers/adguard/docker-compose.yml) and change the line traefik.http.services.adguard.loadbalancer.server.port=3000 to traefik.http.services.adguard.loadbalancer.server.port=80. After making this change, restart AdGuard Home by navigating to /etc/docker/containers/adguard and running sudo docker compose up -d.

    Enable server-side firewall filtering to enforce network access restrictions per client.

    When enabled, each client can have custom \"Firewall Allowed IPs\" configured that restrict which destinations they can access through the VPN. These restrictions are enforced by the server using iptables/ip6tables and cannot be bypassed by the client.

    Experimental Feature

    This feature is currently experimental. While functional, it should be thoroughly tested in your environment before relying on it for production security requirements. Always verify that firewall rules are working as expected using test traffic or by manually inspecting the rules.

    Requirements:

    Note

    Most Linux distributions include iptables by default. If you're running in a minimal container environment, you may need to install the iptables package on the host system.

    Enable this feature if you want to:

    How it works:

    1. Enable \"Per-Client Firewall\" in Admin Panel \u2192 Interface
    2. Edit any client to see the new \"Firewall Allowed IPs\" field
    3. Specify allowed destinations (IPs, subnets, ports) for that client
    4. Server enforces these rules automatically

    See Edit Client \u2192 Firewall Allowed IPs for detailed configuration syntax and examples.

    IPv6 Support
