Tailscale Exit Node

A simple containerized Tailscale exit node.

This allows routing internet traffic from connected devices on your tailnet through this exit node

Requirements

• Install Docker

Setup

git clone https://github.com/dustinbowers/tailscale-exit-node
cd tailscale-exit-node
cp tailscale.env.example tailscale.env

• Get a tailscale auth key from your Tailscale Admin Console

• Add your auth key to TS_AUTHKEY= in the tailscale.env file

• Start the container with ./start.sh (or docker compose up -d) then go to the tailscale admin console and allow the new Machine to run as an exit node on your tailnet

Usage

• Start Tailscale exit node: ./start.sh (or docker compose up -d)
• Stop Tailscale exit node: ./stop.sh (or docker compose down)
