been running my client now for a couple of un-eventful days, however the syslog looks strange:

this was also in post #218 but with negative data values. tried the same advice you gave to rebuild the SQL tables, but that did not work. any advice?

Are you complaining about the number/format of 'noise' messages being written to the Syslog every hour or the accuracy of the data records?

Well, as far as I can tell all numbers are correct. but I meant the "[97m" and "[95m" here and there seems to be unintentional.
Also some lines seems to be cut-off (since they are too long, maybee?).

1. The '[97m1[95m' and '[97m0' are ANSI Control characters which, if viewed on a compatible terminal, (in this instance) will show colours (as used extensively in the wg_manager console interface).

e.g.

1623151571164.png

but I suppose I shouldn't assume that there is ANSI Control character support when writing to Syslog. :oops:

2. There is no truncation , the '>>>>>>' simply denotes the session is still running i.e. there is no end-of-session timestamp (yet) recorded.
(Probably only truly useful when displaying the inbound 'client' Peers rather than the outbound 'client' connections)

just added another vpn client with another country output, wg12. I figure I'll try without doing anything to the config file from my supplier. I couldnt believe it when it just connected.
further, I could'nt really wrap my head around how to make the DNS work with 3 different outbound connections (with unbound stuck in the middle, bound to one vpn client)... well, @Martineau was way ahead of me.

Using Yazfi to make one of the guest ssid: "SurfinUSA" using DNS to router. obviously custom config to allow wl1.1 to wg12 (guessing it is only a matter of time until Yazfi supports wireguard). the only custom config needed at wireguard_manager side was actually to masquarade this subnet as it was leaving wg12.

Thank you @Martineau for making this possible!

(ps. now I only need to figure out why I would ever need to surf-the-usa)

For some reason my log starts displaying negative values on one peer (wg11):

Looks like wg11 stopped generating stat values 12/6 at 10am.

I have looked at the database but can't make any sense of the time codes so I'm lost.

The last thing I did (which might have been 12/6 am:ish but can't remember) was to update my wg12.conf with persistent keepalive and I imported it without deleting the old peer first (I stopped it though). Could this have been messing up the entries for wg11 in such way that cause this?

I'm quite sure this will return to normal when I reset the traffic and session tables.

WireGuard ACTIVE Peer Status: Clients 2, Servers 0

I will try to reset the tables in a couple of hours.

Edit2 (updated): attached last entries in database. Seems to be only wg12 entries after June 12.

Looks like someone hit the internet hard this morning (scools out for summer)

Could it be the rx value growing too large? This coincides with rx growing larger than datatype INT.

Every hour the stats are generated (or you can manually enter the generatestats menu command) and written to the database.

e.g.
Code: 
E:Option ==> diag sql traffic

    DEBUG: SQL '/opt/etc/wireguard.d/WireGuard.db'

    Table:traffic
Peer    Timestamp            RX          TX
<snip>
wg11    2021-06-15 14:08:53  0           0
wg11    2021-06-16 07:53:22  605888184   53896806
wg11    2021-06-16 07:59:01  1247806     1216349

Each time you start a 'client' Peer, a record containing zeros is written.

I know from personal experience (circa 2019) that large numbers can cause arithmetic errors and was fixed in the published script.

e.g.
Code: 
 echo $((1191071409 + 2037987240))
-1065908647
fixed by using
Code: 
echo $(expr "1191071409" + "2037987240")
3229058649

I have uploaded a modified wg_manager v4.11b6 to use the slower external utility expr and (temporarily) modified wg_client to now also explicitly write the zero traffic record to the database when the 'client' Peer is terminated.

Please try the patched scripts.
Code: 
e  = Exit Script [?]

E:Option ==> uf dev

If the problem still persists then you can try manually running the generatestats command after tuning on debugging using the debug command.

Thanks, Updated... looks ok so far but not so high numbers yet. Will probably pop up during the day.

Well, I set my dns in the wg11.conf to router lan ip (192.168.1.1). So unbound and diversion works as normal. This works for me...

Hi
If I set 192.168.1.1 as my dns in wg11.conf, I cannot resolve any website.
Do you have any suggestion?

Edit:
After upgrading with "uf=dev", I can resolve domains again.

Activating wireguard seems to activate some sort of QoS or something on the router. When I install it on my AX86U and do a speedtest, my speed seems to cap at 450 mbps down (I have 1.2 Gbps), and one core gets pegged at 100%. Is there something I'm missing in settings?

Huh, interesting.

Reading on Flow Cache in the forums, seems like it's a black box that replaced CTF with a solution that resolves STP issues.

Wonder if disabling this increases system latency at all or if this is just another one of Broadcomm Proprietary Technologies that doesn't improve anything on modern hardware with enough cache and DRAM speed.

I'll reinstall using the beta. Thanks!
 
Okay still hitting the limit...

I'm sorry, I should have added more detail:

Using a machine from the LOCAL network, I run a speedtest on speedtest.net and then it hits a CPU core hard at 100% and peaks at 300-450 mbps. And I was on the latest dev branch.

Out of curiousity, I tried 'fc enable'. Behavior resumed as normal, hitting the peak speeds of 1.2 Gbps on the local network.

I also tested it from my 5G mobile connection using WireGuard to connect to my router and WAN. FC enable caused the slowdowns mentioned with all cores on the router being hit hard and causing WebUI and SSH lag. Disabling removes that slowness but resumes local machines being speed limited.

Few other notes:
Using 802.3ad WAN Aggregation to my modem for that 1.2 Gbps.
No QoS enabled.
Local desktop hooked to 2.5 Gbps port on AX86U.

Dunno if FC just does not like a new virtual interface? Or if my setup is unique? Don't know, but I can test further if needed.

Disregard, unsure what is happening as local is now working fine. Couldn't say what's the problem yet, but probably not wireguard. A reboot has fixed it for the moment.

Hi,

I'm thinking of using this and have some general questions about how it works that I hope someone can help with:

1. I'd like to set up a Wireguard VPN so I can connect to home remotely instead of using OpenVPN. It sound like this is possible?
2. I'd like to set another Wireguard connection to Mullvad and assign that to a wifi network so all connections to the network are going through it. I'm using YazFi at the moment. Is this possible?
3. What happens if I upgrade ASUS Wrt and the kernel changes, the modules need to be re-compiled / reinstalled before this will work?

Thanks in advance!
 
I am able to get local wg21 run so I can dial-in to my home network via wireguard. Next I try to setup wireguard client to NordVPN. The WireguardVPN.conf was quite empty than some of the config I see here, so I copy a bit over. I can get wg11 connected to NordVPN, I need help on how to setup the rules. Once wg11 connected I lost Internet connection. Internet is still down after I stop wg11. Internet only back after I stop wg21 as well. Then I can start wg21 again and Internet is not affected. Here is the diag output.

Hi,

I'm thinking of using this and have some general questions about how it works that I hope someone can help with:

1. I'd like to set up a Wireguard VPN so I can connect to home remotely instead of using OpenVPN. It sound like this is possible?
2. I'd like to set another Wireguard connection to Mullvad and assign that to a wifi network so all connections to the network are going through it. I'm using YazFi at the moment. Is this possible?
3. What happens if I upgrade ASUS Wrt and the kernel changes, the modules need to be re-compiled / reinstalled before this will work?

Thanks in advance!

1) as long as you have a Public ip adress on your WAN (not behind a cgnat) it should work just fine.
2) absolutely. I have set up yazfi and wgm so ordinary wifi goes out wg11, guest wifi1 goes out wan and guest wifi2 goes out wg12. Some custom config needed on yazfi and wgm side though. I could share what I have if needed.
3) I wouldn't think the kernel ever changes... but I could be wrong...

Thank you for replying,

1. Yes, I have a static IP.
2. Could you please give some pointers on how to do this?
3. OK, got it, I can see there’s an option to rebuild the modules anyhow.

For Yazfi you could follow this post to allow guest subnet to access wireguard interfaces:
https://www.snbforums.com/threads/e...-hnd-platform-4-1-x-kernels.46164/post-664947

Just replace the interfaces wlX.Y and wg0 with your interfaces.
disregard the "masquarading to /16" part since we will handle that below:

For wireguard manager:
Create a custom script for your peer (assuming wg11 below):
Code: 
nano /jffs/addons/wireguard/Scripts/wg11-up.sh
Populate the file with (assuming guest wifi subnet 192.168.2.xxx to wg11):
Code: 
#!/bin/sh

#add custom config here

iptables -t nat -I POSTROUTING -s 192.168.2.0/24 -o wg11 -j MASQUERADE

Save the file.
Make it executable:
Code: 
chmod +x /jffs/addons/wireguard/Scripts/wg11-up.sh

Then redo same thing for another file (to delete rules when peer is stopped:
Code: 
nano /jffs/addons/wireguard/Scripts/wg11-down.sh

Code: 
#!/bin/sh

#add custom config here

iptables -t nat -D POSTROUTING -s 192.168.2.0/24 -o wg11 -j MASQUERADE

Save the file.
Make it executable.

Then the rest of the config in wgm
peer in policy mode,
rule add FROM 192.168.2.0/24 to VPN.
rule add TO 192.168.0.0/16 to WAN

I try to setup wireguard client to NordVPN. The WireguardVPN.conf was quite empty than some of the config I see here, so I copy a bit over
Click to expand...
'WireguardVPN.conf' does not need to be modified for Peer configurations - all parameters are now held in the SQL database.

You simply need to use the import command using the 'client' Peer configuration provided by NordVPN as-is.
