Hi Chris!

 

This is WireGuard design. Reconfiguring network - which (dis)connecting VPN is 
– is administrative task.

 

If your organization issues laptops to their employees, the corporate VPN 
should be up at all times. You don't want them to disconnect from VPN and use 
those laptops on compromised networks, do you?

 

I did have an issue when roaming laptops to and from corporate WiFi, as the 
endpoint IP changes – restarting the tunnel helped, but adding a scheduled task 
to reset endpoint IP every 2 minutes using wg.exe command line works like a 
charm here. If that's the reason you would want your users to manipulate 
WireGuard tunnels?

 

Best regards,

Simon

Subject: Wireguard for Windows - local administrator necessary?

 

Hi there,

 

I've been experimenting with the use of the Windows Wireguard agent for 
corporate VPN access.  It's been working really well!

 

However I've found the logged in user needs local Administrator access to 
activate and de-activate a tunnel.  Is there any way around this?  Is it in the 
roadmap to remove this requirement?  

 

Thanks!

 

Chris
