Exit Nodes
On the node
Register the node and make it advertise itself as an exit node:
$ sudo tailscale up --login-server https://my-server.com --advertise-exit-node
If the node is already registered, it can advertise exit capabilities like this:
$ sudo tailscale set --advertise-exit-node
To use a node as an exit node, IP forwarding must be enabled on the node. Check the official Tailscale documentation for how to enable IP forwarding.
On the control server
$ # list nodes
$ headscale routes list
ID | Machine | Prefix | Advertised | Enabled | Primary
1 | | 0.0.0.0/0 | false | false | -
2 | | ::/0 | false | false | -
3 | phobos | 0.0.0.0/0 | true | false | -
4 | phobos | ::/0 | true | false | -
$ # enable routes for phobos
$ headscale routes enable -r 3
$ headscale routes enable -r 4
$ # Check node list again. The routes are now enabled.
$ headscale routes list
