Wireguard LXC, autostart wg inteface after PVE reboot

[ekz0rcyst]

Hi all!
After restart Proxmox node, and start Wireguard LXC (installed with helper script), need go to WG dashboard and turn on wg interface. How to make autostart?

It has a systemd service to start on boot

Proxmox/install/wireguard-install.sh

Lines 39 to 61 in 6cb0bc5

	msg_info "Creating Service"
	cat <<EOF >/etc/systemd/system/wg-dashboard.service
	[Unit]
	After=syslog.target network-online.target
	Wants=wg-quick.target

What about this?

After reboot Proxmox and starts VMs and LXCs, this checkbox is status off. And after put this checkbox and enable interface all working great. How to automated this? Sorry for noob question.

I have encountered the same problem. After a restart, the checkbox is deactivated and therefore no connection is possible.

Jup, really annoying! This i critical for me to work, otherwise i going back to pivpn...

I solved on mine by login at LXC console and use - sudo systemctl enable wg-quick@CONFIGNAME (in my case wg1 as CONFIGNAME).

After a weekly backup the VPN was down and I found out at WGDashboard an issue is open for next development.

Here is the official solution from the WGDashboard docs: Enable WireGuard configuration when WGDashboard start
