That won't happen until they make a secure, stable, and audited release. See https://forum.netgate.com/topic/132375/installing-wireguard-vpn/5

They have made a secure and audited release.
We'd prefer to use pfSense but are using OpenWRT for wireguard support.
Updated by Soren Stoutner almost 5 years ago
For those who might not be following it, WireGuard is going to be integrated into the Linux kernel 5.6 release, which means both that it is at a point where it is considered ready for general consumption and that use of WireGuard is likely to become much more common in the next couple of years.

We are fully aware. It's good news for them, but that does not mean much of anything for its implementation or stability on FreeBSD (yet).
Updated by Ter Ted almost 5 years ago
Thats sad, I really hope WireGuard could be implemented in pfSense as soon as possible. The performance and security advantage over OpenVPN/Strongswan is huge. Strongswan had a lot of vulnerabilities, the implementation is way to complex. Could the priority of this issue be raised?

PLEASE add WireGuard support! Thank you.

Now that wireguard is officially linux upstream, which is a proof of trust to a certain level, you may want to reconsider your decision. I know Wireguard is still considered WIP, but it takes a lots of trust to be merged in the linux kernel.

Linux is not FreeBSD.

FreeBSD is making commits for in-kernel wireguard. It's coming.

Great! Looking forward to this!
WG is pretty much what I needed for years, and badly improvise with IPsec...
...hope this makes into pfSense soon.

wireguard-go exists on FreeBSD. While it may not be in-kernel, it's a userspace implementation from the same project. There's no reason to continue delaying this.
Updated by Jim Pingle over 4 years ago
There certainly is reason. We're working on the in-kernel implementation and won't be wasting our time on unstable userspace implementations. It's still progressing well, just not publicly except what can be seen in the code going into FreeBSD directly.
Updated by Soren Stoutner over 4 years ago
Take as much time as you need to get it right. I would rather have a stable, in-kernel implementation than a buggy, userspace implementation.

Do you guys have any updates? I know you're doing as good as you can and I appreciate all your hard work, but an update to this would be a great light in these dark times :)

Please stop adding useless comments like these. They do nothing but spam everyone who are patiently watching this issue. Then admins have to lock the issue, preventing relevant discourse from happening.
Updated by Ter Ted almost 4 years ago
Please don't lock this issue, it is very important feature to have for many people.

Just want to say: Thank you!
As far as i can see, all preconditions to start working on this ticket are fulfilled now.
Can we raise the priority of this ticket (currently: "Very low") to something higher accordingly to reflect the user requests above (and all others that did not spammed on this ticket)?
Updated by Jim Pingle almost 4 years ago
It's still being worked on (and has been the whole time). There are ongoing stability issues that have yet to be fixed.

FYI. I have receiving fetch errors on the wiregaurd-tools port. The particular distinfo package is not available on external servers. I have waited a few days to see if it was going to get propagated upstream. Also Jason's latest commit on his server for wireguard-tools is dated 20-12-18 and the pfsense makefile points to a 20-12-16 version.

Project was hosted on an internal server but is now replicated to github at https://github.com/pfsense/wireguard-tools
It will be added to FreeBSD as well soon
