given a score based on how well
the author has formatted their
code and documentation and
modules are also checked for
malware using VirusTotal.

Puppet module to configure wireguard through systemd-networkd configs

Setup

The module can create firewall rules with voxpupuli/nftables. This is enabled by default but can be disabled by setting the manage_firewall parameter to false in the wireguard::interface defined resource. You need to have the nftables class in your catalog to use the feature (Version 3.6.0 or newer).

Version 3 and older of the module use voxpupuli/ferm to manage firewall rules

This module can use systemd-networkd or wg-quick to configure tunnels. For the former, you need to have a systemd-networkd service resource in your catalog. We recommend voxpupuli/systemd with manage_networkd set to true. You do not need to configure your entire network with systemd-networkd, only the tunnels. That said, wg-quick might be better a better match if you do not want to touch systemd.

Furthermore, this module assumes that you've a dualstack machine. Your IPv4 and IPv6 addresses will be automatically set to the destination_addresses array from the wireguard::interface defined resource. If you don't have dualstack you need to overwrite the parameter.

There is a structured fact called wireguard_pubkeys which is a hash with each filename without the .pub and the content (the public key):

# facter -p wireguard_pubkeys
{
  as1234 => "40mH10BbolserhidsruhieudrstlJBB7fxvoPlU=",
  as5678 => "Tci/bHoPColserjfoisehrjioesurrhGpEN+NDueNjUvBA=",
  asblub => "M7lTopd2koserhioesrhiouwerhpcvqSWEviI=",
  notebook => "sK9Ld+p1eH4id+BAuM6lserheoishriouwKhgwFf/HRw=",
  lan => "dIXj6QcWGBWTzq0pwoerjow4eroiwe4jr4CGkXUID3J8rO2k="
}

Example configurations

configure a tunnel with the name as9876.

  • listen for incoming traffic on port 9876
  • create a ferm rule to allow traffic on the global IPv4/IPv6 addresses
  • configure the provided public key from the peer
  • assign a IPv4 and IPv6 prefix on the tunnel interface
wireguard::interface {'as9876':
  source_addresses => ['2003:4e0:c17:5d::1', '195.37.53.176'],
  public_key       => 'BcxLll1BVxGkehriuehrFvjvX+EBhS4vcDn0R0=',
  endpoint         => 'wireguard.example.com:53668',
  addresses        => [{'Address' => '192.168.123.6/30',},{'Address' => 'fe80::beef:1/64'},],
}

configure a tunnel with the name as1234

  • listen on port 9876
  • don't create firewall rules
  • assign a IPv4 and IPv6 prefix on the tunnel interface
    • use /32 for the IPv4 address and add a peer route
wireguard::interface {'as1234':
  manage_firewall => false,
  public_key      => 'B1xSG/XTJRLd+GrWDsB06BqnIq8Xud93YVh/LYYYtUY=',
  endpoint        => 'wireguard.example.com:53668',
  addresses       => [{'Address' => '192.168.218.87/32', 'Peer' => '172.20.53.97/32'}, {'Address' => 'fe80::ade1/64',},],
}
