# Tailscale Guide (Zero-Config Alternative)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Use Tailscale for secure, zero-config networking without port forwarding.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## What is Tailscale
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Tailscale is a mesh VPN that creates encrypted tunnels between your devices using WireGuard. No port forwarding, no dynamic DNS, and it works behind CGNAT. Free for personal use.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Setup
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. **Install Tailscale** on the server machine and each client machine: https://tailscale.com/download
|
||
|
|
2. **Sign in** with the same Tailscale account (or share the machine using Tailscale's sharing feature)
|
||
|
|
3. **Find the server's Tailscale IP** -- shown in the Tailscale app, typically `100.x.y.z`
|
||
|
|
4. **Disable TLS in config** -- set `tls.mode` to `"off"` in `config.yaml` since Tailscale already encrypts all traffic with WireGuard
|
||
|
|
5. **Connect clients** using the Tailscale IP: `100.x.y.z:8443`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Benefits
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- No port forwarding needed
|
||
|
|
- Works behind CGNAT and strict firewalls
|
||
|
|
- Encrypted by default (WireGuard)
|
||
|
|
- Stable IPs that don't change
|
||
|
|
- Easy to add/remove friends via the Tailscale admin console
