Setting up Tailscale for a small team in under an hour.
Tailscale works without firewall changes because it runs peer-to-peer with DERP relay fallback. Ideal when you want a handful of people to reach a NAS, an internal app or a dev server without touching VPN hardware.
Try this first
- 1Hook SSO to Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace, then accounts and off-boarding handle themselves.
- 2Roll out the Tailscale client via Intune or manually on the few laptops, mobile via app store.
- 3Place a subnet router on one box in the office network so you reach legacy printers and NAS without a client on each device.
- 4Tighten ACLs in the admin console, default is wide open: define groups for dev, sales, external.
When to bring us in
You will route production or customer data over Tailscale: enable Tailnet Lock and log MagicDNS access, otherwise you have no audit trail for who reached what.
