FAQPage Schema
How do I securely share a local development server over a private network?

Tailscale VPN enables secure remote access to local development servers by serving local ports privately within your authenticated tailnet, making them accessible across your private network.

What is Tailscale Funnel and when do I need it for remote access?

Tailscale Funnel is a feature that exposes local services to the public internet. You need it when external webhooks or unauthenticated users require access to your local ports without joining your private network.

Can I monitor network status and list connected peers in my VPN?

Yes, you can monitor network status and list connected peers in your VPN by executing status-checking commands provided by the Tailscale skill, which also allows you to ping devices on your network.

Do I need to install and authenticate a VPN client before using these networking commands?

Yes, you must install the Tailscale client and complete authentication before using these networking commands, as the skill relies on an active Tailscale VPN connection to manage remote access and sharing.

What is the best way to expose local webhooks to the public internet?

The best way to expose local webhooks to the public internet is using Tailscale Funnel, which securely routes external traffic to your local services without requiring complex firewall configurations or traditional port forwarding.

Why is my remote access connection not working when sharing internal tools?

Remote access connection issues when sharing internal tools often occur if the Tailscale client is unauthenticated or inactive, as the skill requires a connected VPN state to deploy internal tools and serve ports.
