Background:

Netclient manages WireGuard; and most VPN routers and firewall appliances (FWA) support WireGuard, but they are available only as plugins that are tailormade or closely coupled with the router’s firmware or user interface. While there are ways to make Netclient work for some routers, the integration could get cumbersome, obsolete, or compromising.

Resolution:

Integrate routers using Remote Access Gateway + WireGuard configuration. For more information, please refer to this how-to guide in the documentation:
