 This article explains how to configure wireguard on Gentoo.
 
-## Configuration example
+## Installation
 
-Here is a `/etc/wireguard/wg0.conf` configuration example to create a tunnel listening on udp port 342 and a remote peers :
+```sh
+emerge net-vpn/wireguard-tools -q
+```
+
+You will also need to set `CONFIG_WIREGUARD=y` in your kernel configuration.
+
+## Generating keys
+
+The private and public keys for a host can be generated with the following commands:
+```sh
+PRIVATE_KEY=`wg genkey`
+PUBLIC_KEY=`printf $PRIVATE_KEY|wg pubkey`
+echo private_key: $PRIVATE_KEY
+echo public_key: $PUBLIC_KEY
+```
+
+## Configuration
+
+Here is a configuration example of my `/etc/wireguard/wg0.conf` that creates a tunnel listening on udp port 342 and has one remote peer:
 ```cfg

-Your private key goes on the first line as argument to `wgkey`, the other keys are public keys for each peer. In this example I setup a client that can be hidden behind nat therefore I configure a `PersistentKeepalive`. If your host has a public IP this line is not needed.
+To implement this example you will need to generate two sets of keys. The configuration for the first server will feature the first server's private key in the `[Interface]` section and the second server's public key in the `[Peer]` section, and vice versa for the configuration of the second server.

+This example is from a machine that can be hidden behind nat therefore I configure a `PersistentKeepalive`. If your host has a public IP this line is not needed.

 ## Administration
 
-Private keys can be generated with the following command :

-openssl rand -base64 32

 The tunnel can be managed with the `wg` command:
