WG can live without keepalives(though it can use them), there is no real "session" concept. A peer will just connect back when the traffic starts flowing.
I keep an eye out on my battery usage and never noticed it being in the list.
On the zero-trust front - it's not really meant to completely replace authentication but it does help with minimizing attack surface. It does help with encrypting traffic, especially for stuff that does not talk https.
- emilburzo 4y agoNice, I need to try out Wireguard then, it sounds like things really improved in the VPN world.
- VTimofeenko 4y agoYeah, having worked with an OpenVPN setup in the past - wireguard is definitely a breath of fresh air. It can be a little bit tough to setup depending on the rest of the network stack(openrc/network manager/systemd/systemd-network, etc), but it's very flexible. Wg-quick (typically comes as part of wireguard-tools on distros) is extremely handy for the initial testing.
