# WireGuard VPN

WireGuard is a straightforward, modern, cross-platform VPN implementation. It is usually used to either connect a single system to a remote site ("peer-to-site") or to connect two distinct networks over the internet ("site-to-site").

```{toctree}
:titlesonly:

Peer-to-site <wireguard-vpn/peer-to-site>
Site-to-site <wireguard-vpn/site-to-site>
```

WireGuard can also be set up to route all traffic through the VPN. 

```{toctree}
:titlesonly:

Default gateway <wireguard-vpn/vpn-as-the-default-gateway>
```

There are also some common tasks and tips that will help you adjust your configuration to your needs.
