Tailscale and two NICs (lemmy.sdf.org)
submitted 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago) by [email protected] to c/[email protected]
 

Hi all,

Anyone with a similar setup to this:

I have a machine with 2 NICs one for default gateway and other a "private" subnet with a service I need to access remotely for a few days (basically its a wifi router where a wifi-only device connects).

Will tailscale work for this case plug'n'play or will I need setup any routing?

Tailscale is an overlay network. It will use whatever networking is available. If only one of those NICs is a gateway, then that’s what will be used to reach remote Tailnet resources.
