Creating new users is quite a straightforward process when it comes to your private WireGuard VPN server as everything happens with just a few clicks through the WireGuard UI control panel. In this step-by-step tutorial we are going to help you get acquainted with the entire process, ultimately making you capable of managing your server’s user profiles.

Step 1: Log into your server

You should have received your credentials as well as the server IP address from your provider. Use them to gain access to the VPN server's control panel. Simply put the IP address into your browser, folled by the server port and hit enter. The entire sequence should look like so:

go to your server's control panel

To create a new user profile, navigate to the ‘New Client’ button on the top right of the page and select it, as highlighted in the following picture:

Fill in the ‘Name’ and ‘Email’ fields by inputting the information that you would like the new user profile to have. It is important to note that you should leave the ‘IP Allocation’ field as it is because WireGuard will automatically assign an IP to the profile as the VPN works with a special predefined IP range, meaning that if you change the IP range manually, your connection might not work.

Once you have completed the first two fields, simply click on ‘Submit’. You will be redirected back to the main menu screen of the WireGuard VPN server. A message will appear in a green box in the top right of the screen stating ‘Created user successfully’ and your new user profile will appear next to your initial one as it can be seen here:
