How tailscale helped me
-
I'm currently staying away a lot from my home address. I have a Dell server with proxmox hypervisor installed and various vms hosting nextcloud and casa os.
I have two ports open 80,443. For nginx proxy traffic for subdomains that allow access to nextcloud. I wanted to access the proxmox gui and my home lan. This is where tailscale has been brilliant.
I've installed tailscale on my server and enabled subnet routing. I now use a mobile and laptop to connect to my internal lan without having to open any ports. Tail scale is a mesh vpn which uses the wireguard protocol.
I really recommend this solution and it works great and documentation is easy step by step.
