Go Implementation of AmneziaWG

AmneziaWG is a contemporary version of the WireGuard protocol. It's a fork of WireGuard-Go and offers protection against detection by Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) systems. At the same time, it retains the simplified architecture and high performance of the original.

The precursor, WireGuard, is known for its efficiency but had issues with detection due to its distinctive packet signatures. AmneziaWG addresses this problem by employing advanced obfuscation methods, allowing its traffic to blend seamlessly with regular internet traffic. As a result, AmneziaWG maintains high performance while adding an extra layer of stealth, making it a superb choice for those seeking a fast and discreet VPN connection.

Usage

Simply run:

$ amneziawg-go wg0

This will create an interface and fork into the background. To remove the interface, use the usual ip link del wg0, or if your system does not support removing interfaces directly, you may instead remove the control socket via rm -f /var/run/amneziawg/wg0.sock, which will result in amneziawg-go shutting down.

To run amneziawg-go without forking to the background, pass -f or --foreground:

$ amneziawg-go -f wg0

When an interface is running, you may use amneziawg-tools to configure it, as well as the usual ip(8) and ifconfig(8) commands.

To run with more logging you may set the environment variable LOG_LEVEL=debug.
