Hi Lonnie,

I agree. If a peer could push updated information of a remote peer (e.g. ip 
address, port) to all other peers it would be great, too.

Regards,

Renne

Hi List, Request For Comments:

I would find it useful if "wg" would support a "syncpeers" subcommand.
--
Usage: wg syncpeers <interface> <configuration filename>
--
Available subcommands:
   syncpeers: Synchronizes a configuration file of peers to a WireGuard 
interface
--

Given:
- A user creates a wireguard.conf file.

- Uses "wg setconf wg0 wireguard.conf" to apply the configuration.

Request:
- Later, a user edits a wireguard.conf file: adds peers, deletes peers, and/or 
edits peers.

- Use "wg syncpeers wg0 wireguard.conf" to synchronize the configuration file 
of peers with the current state.

- Synchronize changes with minimal impact, determine peer differences and leave 
unchanged settings alone.

- Basically internally using "wg set wg0 ..." to make the minimum changes.

- If the [Peer] Endpoint is a DNS hostname, the Endpoint will be resolved and 
IP updated.

Note: Interestingly, "wg setconf wg0 wireguard.conf" *almost* performs as requested 
except for a 17 second interruption of the tunnel *if* PersistentKeepalive is 0.  Even if 
PersistentKeepalive is 3600, a "wg setconf wg0 wireguard.conf" will not effect an active 
tunnel except for resetting traffic counters.

I understand a script could be created to perform this as well, but adding it to 
"wg" lowers the hurdle for many users.

If the 17 second interruption of active tunnels while using "wg setconf wg0 
wireguard.conf" could be eliminated, this request may be moot.

Comments please.

Lonnie
