#### Tailscale Tipp - [Source](https://www.reddit.com/r/unRAID/comments/122rxax/tailscale_for_unraid_plugin_released/)
For those who are trying to access docker containers using this plugin from the tailscale subnet, open console and type in
```
tailscale set --advertise-routes=192.168.1.0/24
```
Then go to the tailscale config [page](https://login.tailscale.com/admin/machines) and on the line of your unRAID box, click the ... icon and select "Edit route settings...". You should see a slider for the subnet that you advertised. Enable that slider.
