Install WireGuard from the supported distribution repositories, generate server and client keys locally, and protect private keys with mode 600. Choose a private tunnel subnet that does not overlap client networks.

Enable IP forwarding only when the VPN design requires routing, permit the chosen UDP listen port, and add narrowly scoped forwarding/NAT rules. A minimal validation checks the interface, route and latest handshake:

wg show
ip address show wg0
ip route

Do not paste private keys into support tickets. Test access to the VPN endpoint before applying restrictive firewall changes, and ensure the deployment complies with the Acceptable Use Policy and all laws applicable to its users.
