Do you really think that a tailscale VPN is necessary to deal with link failures? It is not BGP and SD-WAN or MPLS l2 VPN can do that.

- supermatt 2y agoI didn't mention Tailscale. I said "overlay", and both SD-WAN and MPLS L2 VPN are overlay networks.
- lo0dot0 2y agoIdk what you mean with routing instability. Changes to routing as a result of failures are a feature not the problem.
- supermatt 2y agoYou said "Dynamic IP addresses typically also have a forced disconnect at a regular interval.", which is false in pretty much every DHCP scenario I have ever seen. A change in an IP lease should result in no downtime whatsoever, because addressing is not the same as routing. A routing change would have exactly the same effect on a static IP. I then pointed out that an overlay network means you don't have to worry about that anyway. I think you need to reread whatever comments you think you are responding to, as there is clearly something out of sync with your replies.
