Wireguard is a free and open source software application and communication protocol that implements VPN
techniques to create a secure point to point connection. Mannan uses this to create a VPN tunnel for remote
access of the Mannan Network. Below is a step wise setup guide for different operating systems, jump right
away to the operating system you are using to connect to the Mannan network by clicking on any of the
following:

Allow edI P s = 0.0.0.0/0
Endpoint = 103.113.105.58:46352

 Kindly note that the Address tag would include the IP assigned to you by the IT Admin, which would be
different for every employee. For ex: If a user has been assigned the IP 10.10.0.2, the final configuration

Client Setup for Ubuntu Users

 Run the following command on the terminal:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:wireguard/wireguard

sudo apt install wireguard openresolv

 We will now generate a key pair in the home directory:

umask 077

wg genkey | tee privatekey | wg pubkey > publickey

 Two files must have been created by the name of privatekey and publickey in the home directory itself.
 View those files by running the command:

cat privatekey

cat publickey

 Now we will create a configuration file by running the following command:

sudo vi /etc/wireguard/wg0.conf
Mannan VPN Access v1.0

 Copy and paste the following content into the file:

[I nterface]
P rivateK ey = <Copy the content of the Private Key>
Address = <iP provided by IT Admin>/24
DN S = 8.8.8.8

[P eer]
P ublicK ey = VKlkTLPnbazHPBUtqHsFW2GdchrA33XHkoz2XyyfIhw=
Allow edI P s = 0.0.0.0/0
Endpoint = 103.113.105.58:46352

 Save and exit the file.

Please note that the Address and Private Key will have different values for everyone. The final config would look
something like this:

[I nterface]
P rivateK ey = MLI76wor8/szwGp0K4LxIl0QE2M/SOqpZaWUDHWb7XA=
Address = 10.10.0.2/24
DN S = 8.8.8.8

[P eer]
P ublicK ey = VKlkTLPnbazHPBUtqHsFW2GdchrA33XHkoz2XyyfIhw=
Allow edI P s = 0.0.0.0/0
Endpoint = 103.113.105.58:46352

 Now share the public key we created in the earlier step with the System Admin and wait for his
confirmation.
 After that run the command to activate or deactivate the connection:

To Activate : wg-quick up wg0

To Deactivate: wg-quick down wg0

Now You must be connected to Mannan Network and can work remotely as you would in the office accessing all
the resources of office with their original IPs.
