I want to use it as an exit node and advertise the LAN. When I try the command with:
tailscale up --advertise-routes=192.168.1.0/24 --accept-routes --advertise-exit-node
Then it freezes. I change the advertise route to 192.168.1.0/24 too. Then I have to hard reset the NAS.
I've had it work with ASUS AX59U with 24.10.rc7 perfectly.
Given you have the ASUS AX59U functioning as a Exit Node with advertised routes why do you want the NAS to perform those functions?
1 If the Exit Node and advertised routes are removed does Tailscale function?
2 Have you tried configuring it as an Exit Node without advertised routes?
Exit node without advertising routes "seem" to work, but in reality no internet. Could it be because this is an armv5te based CPU? Maybe it's too old for tailscale?
Exit Node without the advertise route should get you to the Internet.
Does the Exit Node with only the advertised route of its own subnet work?
So if the NAS is 10.0.0.x/24, the advertised route is 10.0.0.0/24.
tailscale up --advertise-exit-node
This looks like it's working, but no internet in reality.
tailscale up --advertise-routes=192.168.1.0/24 --accept-routes --advertise-exit-node
This, it freezes. I would send the logs but it freezes, I reset the NAS and it still doesn't work. Only hard reset works, but then I have to set up everything again.
Did you remove the advertised routes?
tailscale up --accept-routes --advertise-routes= --advertise-exit-node
You will need to log in to the Tailscale Co-ordination Server and remove the Subnet Routes.
This hopefully will at least get the Exit Node out to the Internet.
Hmm. I'll backup everything and try once more. Will report back.
When you set up lan to lan VPN. all of your sites must have different non-overlapping subnets for their LANs.
Btw, do I do anything about firewall? I simply passed about that part because this device doesn't have wan port or anything. The guide is for routers.
Ok it freezes again:
Ok it worked. I don't know why. This time no freeze. But I actually created a tailscale interface this time. And did the firewall related stuff at wiki, but only selected LAN at last two selection, you know since WAN will be empty for this NAS device. See here:
Then did this:
opkg install tailscale iptables-nft kmod-ipt-conntrack kmod-ipt-conntrack-extra kmod-ipt-conntrack-label kmod-nft-nat kmod-ipt-nat
tailscale up --advertise-exit-node --advertise-rout
es=192.168.7.0/24 --accept-routes
Your setup is not one that I have dealt with before.
I have setup routers to act as Exit Nodes and placed them at sites in a Double NAT with nothing connected to the LAN side of the Exit Node Router. In that situation it is WAN port that is communicating to the Tailnet and I would think it would be the same for you as the NAS has been turned into a Router, thus the NAS LAN port is now the NAS/Router WAN port.
Thanks for help. I fixed it. But dunno why it happen like that either way.
Edit: well done, just saw you posted the solution.
