# `add_wireguard_interface` Command

## Name

`add_wireguard_interface` or `add_wireguard_interfaces`

## Synopsis

`add_wireguard_interface ${wireguard_name} [${wireguard_name}]...`

## Description

Adds the specified wireguard interface name (`${wireguard_name}`) to the
`wireguard_interfaces` variable in `rc.conf`.  Wireguard interfaces need
not be numbered sequentially.  As usual, `/usr/local/etc/wireguard/wg0.conf`
and so forth are used to define the configuration for that tunnel.

`add_wireguard_interfaces` exists as a convenience/readability alias to make
configuration lines which add multiple wireguard interfaces less ambiguous.

## Examples

#### Add a single wireguard interface

`add_wireguard_interface wg0`

#### Add wireguard interfaces for 0 and 1 and 2

`add_wireguard_interfaces 0 1 2`
