Hello,

I've been reading about this new WireGuard vpn, which seems to be quite performante compared to other vpn types and will also be integrated in the linux kernel (if it isn't already).
Does WatchGuard have plans to integrate this new VPN type?

Thanks!

Greetings,

Thibaud

    Hi @Thibaud

    WatchGuard is currently exploring implementing it in the future, but there hasn't been a decision made thus far.

    The current SSLVPN is based on OpenVPN which is widely available and compatible with a multitude of systems.

    If you have any specific use cases that you believe would benefit from this, I'd encourage you to open a support case and provide more details so that a feature request can be written around your needs.

    Hi @James_Carson !

    No specific use case.
    It's just that I read a bit about this and appears to be more performant then other vpn types.
    WatchGuard's current SSL VPN is actually slower than for example IKEv2 and I thought it might be an idea to have a WireGuard client instead of the SSL VPN client, so it gets more performant.

    Kind regards,

    Thibaud
