Umbrel, LND as Hybrid-Mode using TailScale

Dear community,

I hope you all are doing well.

I am trying to configure a tailscale like the image below, but without success.

Basically I would like to exposive lnd to clearnet using a VPN connection to VPS server with a fixed ip address to be defined with externalip on LND.

I have a docker container running tailscale as an exit-node. I can use it as exit-node from my phone. Tested and working well.

In the Umbrel tailscale container, I run it as interactive mode and run ‘tailscale set --exit-node=dockercontainer’, but when I try tailscale exit-node list, the dockercontainer status appear as ‘selected but offline’. I cannot reach it using ping, but from dockercontainer exit-node I can reach all: umbrel, phone, etc.

Anyone knows what I can do to get that setup working well? I welcome ideas and suggestions.

I appreciate any help in advance.

Nobody? Any suggestion about how to proceed as described above?

I’ve setup tailscale on my router, and pointed Umbrel to use that one as an exit node. With that setup I’m able to reach my Umbrel outside my network

I am referring to you use another tailscale point and use Umbrel to route-out Internet traffic to that point. Imagine that you want to use a node as Hybrid-Mode and expose the VPN IP address instead of your own.

Have somebody used tailscale to expose IP address using Hybrid-Mode?

I think you should ask in a networking/Tailscale forum… I don’t think anyone here will be able to help, if they read you. (The mods don’t seem to be around)

Hi,

I would try setting the external ip in the lnd.conf to the fixed IP of the VPS and ensure the necessary ports for LND are open. However, I’m not sure if that alone will solve the issue.

Hello ken,

Any device where I set tailscale set --exit-node=IP simple route all traffic to node selected. Mobile phone, laptop, etc. The only device that I set tailscale set --exit-node=IP and doesn’t work is Umbrel. So I think that the problem is related to Umbrel, not tailscale.

The problem is I can’t not reach the IP address of VPN from Umbrel. Any other device from tailscale can reach the exit-node, except Umbrel.
