Tailscale
Updated: September 28, 2024
Tailscale is a zero config VPN. It also produces a private flat network.
Tailscale functions as a drop in replacement of a reverse proxy, and can be sidecar with OCI containers.
It is even better as there is no opening up holes in a firewall or having trouble with double NATs.
