# add a peer

Say we want to connect two computers via wireguard. We will call them **one** and **two**.

## one
on one, run the following command to add a new host:
```
sudo wg set wg0 peer ${two_pubkey:?} endpoint ${two_public_ip:?}:${two_port:?} allowed-ips ${two_wg_ip:?}/32
```
if we also want to be able to refer to the host by an easy to remember name rather than just an IP, we can also add it to `/etc/hosts`
