WireGuard VPN For Linux Is Finally Ready For Launch

[Herran]

For several years, developers have been working on WireGuard VPN for Linux and now it is finally ready to arrive on the platform.
Linus Torvalds, the creator of Linux himself praised the new in-kernel Linux VPN, calling it a “work of art” in comparison to other VPNs such as OpenVPN and IPSec (referring to them as horrors).

 
What makes WireGuard VPN for Linux so good?WireGuard is a layer 3 secure VPN — a type of VPN mode that is built and delivered on OSI layer 3 networking technologies. Unlike other VPNs, WireGuard’s code is much cleaner and simpler which results in a fast and easy-to-use virtual private network.

 
So When Is WireGuard VPN For Linux Arriving?WireGuard has already been committed to the mainline Linux kernel. So, we can expect a built-in WireGuard VPN for Linux to arrive in early 2020, most probably with a Linux kernel 5.6 release candidate. However, normal day-to-day Linux users might not get to see the in-kernel WireGuard until late 2020.
