need something very basic, but very reliable to run a tailscale subnet router on - my first thought was just a VM on a proxmox box, but if that shits the bed, i can't access the LOM because the subnet router is on it!

so probably need something standalone, but i dont want it sucking too much power (or too expensive)

@decryption do you have a static IP at home? Allow your IP direct to LOM in case of emergency. Or if no static, use a VPS.

@jonathantrott hmm, that's a good idea - i wonder if i can even enable that rule with something like a dead man's switch? like if the usual interface can't be reached, turn that rule from disabled to enabled

@decryption Possibly. Also, if you don't have LOM on the hardware, get an APC PDU - network controlled power board for racks!
