OpenBSD does things elegantly as usual : where linux distributions have a service, OpenBSD has a simple `/etc/hostname.wg0` file. The interface is therefore managed without any tool other than the standard ifconfig, it's so simple and elegant!

+I am not aware of an openssl command to extract the corresponding public key, but after setting up your interface `ifconfig` will kindly show it to you.
## Configuration
Here is a configuration example of my `/etc/hostname.wg0` that creates a tunnel listening on udp port 342 and several peers :
