🛡️ Technical Protocol Insights

  • WireGuard overhead is exactly 60 bytes (20B IPv4 header + 8B UDP header + 32B WireGuard header).
  • Setting MTU to 1420 prevents ICMP fragmentation issues across standard 1500 WAN interfaces.
  • PersistentKeepalive = 25 ensures stateful NAT routers keep UDP session mapping alive.
