There is no reason why we wouldn't want to have it, ignoring the question of whether ifconfig is already too bloated. The main consideration would be to avoid modifying the if_wg ioctl interface, i.e., using the existing SIOCSWG and SIOCGWG ioctls, as wg(8) does. > I’m sure I have the code somewhere if you really want to try.

I am interested in implementing similar support in FreeBSD - is there anyone already working on this or perhaps the right mentor for adding this functionality?
