ifconfig problem with >10 wireguard peers

[Harald Dunkel-5]

Hi folks,

apparently ifconfig (openbsd 6.8) shows only 10 wireguard peers
for wg0, even if hostname.wg0 defines 12 peers. This is pretty
painful.

Do you think it would be possible to increase this limitation to
(lets say) 253?


Thank you very much in advance
Harri

I don't see that here:

# for i in `jot 500`; do ifconfig wg1 wgpeer `openssl rand -base64 32`; done
# ifconfig wg1 | grep -c wgpeer
500

That is with -current, though I don't see anything which looks like it
would have changed since 6.8.

Sorry, my bad. Some lines in my hostname.wg0 were commented out. I
didn't notice.

We are evaluating wireguard on an OpenBSD gateway in a road-warrior
setup for almost 3 months by now. It works very well.
