Then i added a 2nd interface to the CHR VM:Įthernet1: 10.1.0.0/24 address range and public ipĮthernet2: 10.0.0.0/24 address range and no public ip My azure interface had only the option of using the 10.0.1.0/24 ip range.

My idea is/was to only expose the WG port and allow CHR management either from WG or the azure VM (which would share LAN with the CHR).ĭo I need a WAN interface and 'normal' firewall settings in this case? (CHR would be behind Azure's firewall) Here, I would only use the CHR for wireguard (office/guardpost/road warriors would connect to it, gaining access to the azure VM AND the office network). I am accustomed to mikrotiks with 5 interfaces (1 as WAN, 4 in bridge) for home/small office use (no plans). Should I add another in a different network to use as WAN and the current one (same as the sole azure VM they use) be left as LAN? The VM has only one physical (well, virtual) interface. I could go Linux, but I like Mikrotik and made a CHR instance. I help an ONG (got them an azure sponsorship), and since they can't get a public IP (ISP gives them a fake public IP behind double Nat), I thought about setting up a VM to be their Wireguard 'core'. Quick example on how to use CHR on ESXi 6.5 via it's web interface and some cli.I've been using Mikrotik for personal stuff for ages, and recently learned about Wireguard after the V7 upgrade How to Install Cloud Hosted Router on VMWare ESXi 6.5 Step 10: Choose Hard Disk and set the new disk size.If bigger storage is desired, you can expand the virtual hard drive.

Step 9: By default CHR disk image is 128MB.

Step 6: By default VMWare uses 256MB RAM, adjust the size if needed, any size starting from 128MB can be used for RouterOS.

Step 4: Select the file you downloaded from download page.
