# Wireguard
|
|
This is a simple docker image to run a wireguard client. It includes a killswitch to ensure that any traffic not encrypted via wireguard is dropped.
|
|
|
|
Wireguard is implemented as a kernel module, which is key to its performance and simplicity. However, this means that Wireguard _must_ be installed on the host operating system for this container to work properly. Instructions for installing Wireguard can be found [here](http://wireguard.com/install).
|
|
|
|
You will need a configuration file for your Wireguard interface. Many VPN providers will create this configuration file for you. For example, [here](http://mullvad.net/en/download/wireguard-config) is the configuration generator for Mullvad. Be sure to NOT include a killswitch in the configuration file, since the docker image already has one.
|
|
|
|
Now simply mount the configuration file and run! For example, if your configuration file is located at `/path/to/conf/mullvad.conf`:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
docker run --name wireguard \
|
|
--privileged \
|
|
-v /path/to/conf/mullvad.conf:/etc/wireguard/mullvad.conf \
|
|
jordanpotter/wireguard
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Afterwards, you can link other containers to this one:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
docker run -it --rm \
|
|
--net=container:wireguard \
|
|
appropriate/curl http://httpbin.org/ip
|
|
```
