  • My setup doesnt matter, I don’t use Unifi for my main home infra.

    You can use the Unifi device itself. Teleport is just a single click Wireguard service, with no need for port forwarding or additional configuration.

    Last I saw it, you can export the config from the browser for use with client devices, you can use that with wireguard tunnel and set it as always on.



  • I am, though I’m not using unifi.

    Teleport is just Wireguard with unifi stacked on top. You can just export the config and its literally a Wireguard connection. Unifi Teleport is just using their online services to replace a step.

    But teleport (which is Wireguard under the hood) is not meant for an always-on connection, its meant for ad-hoc connections.

    So if you want always on, export the config and run it as a Wireguard tunnel. Its exactly the same service, running on exactly the same device, without using wifiman and allowing for an always on VPN.

    If its for work, its on a work machine.

    That said, I have a lot of efforts (personal projects with hardware I get given, or side work not related to my job) where I need specific software. For those, I have a VM tailored to that application that’s been trimmed down as much as possible.

    This let’s me rdp into them, do what I need to do, save to a designated location, and shut the VM down. Since its a VM I tend not to give it network access unless required, and I have USB drive I pass through to the VM.

    This makes sure everything works, I limit the access of MS with local only accounts and win 10 (among other specific versions like XP for a specific piece of hardware, server 2008 for an irritating piece of software I sometimes need, etc).

    All the VMs are on my proxmox cluster, easy to start/stop with a script.
