Haller: WireGuard in NetworkManager

[Posted March 15, 2019 by corbet]

Thomas Haller writes about the WireGuard integration in NetworkManager 1.16. "NetworkManager provides a de facto standard API for configuring networking on the host. This allows different tools to integrate and interoperate — from cli, tui, GUI, to cockpit. All these different components may now make use of the API also for configuring WireGuard. One advantage for the end user is that a GUI for WireGuard is now within reach." (See this article for more information on WireGuard.)

There hasn't been a request for inclusion of wireguard into the kernel in the last couple of months. What is the state here?

Don't worry; we're working on it, and still have the same upstreaming plans.
