Monitoring external application outside of cluster
I have a wireguard VPN set up between a node on SITE A and a machine on SITE B. I want to utilize prometheus that is running inside the cluster to monitor the VPN connection using WireGuard Exporter (running on the SITE A node) and setting it up in accordance with this: WireGuard-vpn-s2s.

WireGuard show all dump not updating latest handshake
I'm using [Prometheus](https://prometheus.io/) NMS And [Grafana](https://grafana.com/) as a graphical display to monitor WireGuard connections and data metrics in general.I'm using a [WireGuard Metrics Exporter](https://github.com/MindFlavor/prometheus_wireguard_exporter/tree/master/src) that relies on the stdout of ` wg show all dump`

I did some benchmarks of Linux WireGuard implementations
Right now the three major Linux implementations are wireguard-linux, wireguard-go and BoringTun. With some recent improvements to wireguard-go I decided to benchmark each one of them with ping and iPerf 3 over TCP and UDP.

Show HN: TunnlTo – Windows WireGuard split tunnel client built with Rust, Tauri
I assume since Wiresock is using BoringTun(https://github.com/cloudflare/boringtun) under the hood, it works similar to other userspace implementations of wireguard, (e.g. wireguard-go, wireguard-rs) in that it uses a TUN device to deliver packets to the userspace implementation, and back out to the network. So, no driver installation required, but CAP_NET_ADMIN is required to create the TUN device.

Set up your own VPN at home with Raspberry Pi – Wolfang's Blog
It's using some sort of a custom installer that also downloads Cloudflare's BoringTun (https://github.com/cloudflare/boringtun) directly from the author's website (nyr[.]be), since Cloudflare doesn't seem to offer it as a binary release. Example:
{ wget -qO- https://wg.nyr[.]be/1/latest/download 2>/dev/null || curl -sL https://wg.nyr.be/1/latest/download ; } | tar xz -C /usr/local/sbin/ --wildcards 'boringtun-*/boringtun' --strip-components 1 -
