How to import WireGuard profile using nmcli on Linux

Posted: 04 Feb 2021 03:55 AM PST

I have multiple wireguard profiles on Linux. Is there any way to import WireGuard profile (/etc/wireguard/wg{0,1,2}.conf files) using nmcli on Linux? I don't want to become root and run systemctl start wg-quick@wg0. How can I import an existing WireGuard profile from using NetworkManager command-line interface?

Let us see why and how this matters to Linux users.
