Wireguard Server Installation 2025 - WG EASY DOCKER

This document is intended for setting up WireGuard VPN as a Docker container with the WG-Easy interface.

1. Firewall (UFW) Settings

Ubuntu 22.04 usually comes with UFW enabled. Open the required ports:

sudo ufw allow 51820/udp
sudo ufw allow 51821/tcp

To check UFW status and rules:

sudo ufw status verbose

2. Docker Installation (with Official Script)

Use the following command to quickly install Docker:

curl -sSL <https://get.docker.com> | sh

After installation, add the user to the Docker group and check the installation with version control:

sudo usermod -aG docker $(whoami)
newgrp docker
docker version

3. WG-Easy Installation

Create directory for Config:

mkdir -p ~/.wg-easy

Launch WG Easy Docker Container:

docker run -d \\
  --name=wg-easy \\
  -e WG_HOST=$(curl -s ifconfig.me) \\
  -e PASSWORD=GUCLUSIFREGIRINBURAYA \\
  -v ~/.wg-easy:/etc/wireguard \\
  -p 51820:51820/udp \\
  -p 51821:51821/tcp \\
  --cap-add=NET_ADMIN \\
  --cap-add=SYS_MODULE \\
  --sysctl="net.ipv4.conf.all.src_valid_mark=1" \\
  --sysctl="net.ipv4.ip_forward=1" \\
  --restart unless-stopped \\
  weejewel/wg-easy

4. Web Interface Login

To access the WG-Easy interface via browser:

http://SUNUCUIPADRESI:51821

The web interface password is the strong password you specified in the previous step.

All client settings and configuration files are kept in this directory:

~/.wg-easy

5. Web Interface

After pressing the new client button, all you have to do is type a name. Then you can download the resulting config and use it on the computers you want to use.
