Tailscale on Unifi Dream Machine

This repo contains the scripts necessary to install and run a tailscale instance on your Unifi Dream Machine (UDM/UDM Pro). It does so by piggy-backing on the excellent boostchicken/udm-utilities to provide a persistent service and runs using Tailscale's usermode networking feature.
