hello YouTubers welcome back to my
0:13
channel this is Johnny in this video I'm
0:15
going to show you how to create your own
0:19
private VPN network using tail scale
0:23
tail scale is a modern VPN solution
0:26
which give you a private encrypted
0:30
connection between all your devices no
0:32
matter where they are located as long as
0:35
they can connect to internet and they
0:36
install tail scale agent on your
0:39
computer and log into the account then
0:42
all your device going to be in your own
0:44
private Network as showing here the
0:47
thing I like for tail go is the
0:50
configuration basically there's no
0:53
coding and all is web based very simple
0:57
easy to use comparing to my other videos
1:02
I introduced it before for the VPN
1:05
tunnels such as Cloud fa W tunnel such
1:09
as Cisco checkpoint 408 all those VPN
1:13
tunnels this one obviously is become
1:16
much more easy to deploy which is I'm
1:20
going to show you in this video in three
1:21
steps five minutes and then you can get
1:24
your VPN tanel up and running in the
1:27
cloud now let's start it
1:33
a quick topology introduction about the
1:36
lab and what we going to do in this lab
1:40
we going to create our tail scale
1:42
account and then we going to install
1:45
agent tail scale agent on your Windows
1:48
machine or on Linux machine then we
1:52
going to connect them together so both
1:54
of them can talk to each other also
1:57
we're going to make one
2:00
node become exit node so all your device
2:05
in your network will be able to use this
2:09
a node to go to internet so that's a
2:12
very useful use case because once your
2:15
windows network has a restriction on the
2:19
area or on your filtering then you can
2:22
completely by passing that using a tail
2:25
scale Network and then go through your X
2:28
note to go to internet where there's no
2:31
restriction which allows you to access
2:34
something you like to access to it but
2:36
you can achieve from your local location
2:39
the first step let's create account
2:41
download
2:46
agent there's almost no requirement for
2:50
you to create the account with tail
2:52
scale Network you can directly get
2:56
started and the login sign up with your
3:00
Google Microsoft giab Apple account very
3:03
simple easy then you will log
3:07
in it is also free for personal to use
3:11
you have business plan you w need to pay
3:14
but you can choose personal plan which
3:16
is three users 100 devices addon devices
3:20
for 50 Cent per month so for a personal
3:24
usage this should be enough 100 devices
3:27
if I more than that definitely you can
3:30
to looking at other plans so once you
3:33
have account log in then you should be
3:36
able to see this console all operations
3:39
will be here you can start to add device
3:42
into your network so let me going to add
3:45
a Linux device we don't have to create
3:48
anything we can generate our install
3:50
script right
3:53
away so as you can see here
3:57
let's copy this one very simple once you
4:00
generate the install script um I'm
4:04
having Canon Linux box in my network
4:09
which I installed before you can see my
4:11
videos here to see how you can get canon
4:14
inux box in your home network load it in
4:17
a VM where workstation so once you have
4:20
installation script can do shift V paste
4:23
it in it may take couple minutes to get
4:26
it done because there's quite bit
4:29
downloading for
4:32
installation the default car username
4:35
password car as well so now it's
4:39
downloading I will be back once it's
4:41
finished the downloading and
4:43
installation so the installation has
4:45
completed tail scale is up now let's go
4:50
back to our
4:51
portal so now you can see C machine has
4:55
been added into our Network and we got
4:58
IP $100
5:00
89116
5:04
95 you can see
5:07
that IP address we got it we can see
5:12
routing I will show all your routing
5:15
tables so default is still going to my
5:18
home network you can see 100 100 100 is
5:22
here that is very special tail scale
5:26
only IP address used for ser in local
5:31
tail scale Network so that's important
5:34
for tail scale Network by default all
5:37
tail scale device will have L IP once
5:39
you connect to it and this is the IP
5:43
address for my machine carry so you can
5:46
see that so those two route has been
5:49
added in once you bring tail scale
5:52
Network up we're going to do second we
5:55
going to add the Windows machine
6:02
Windows let's copy link for
6:07
downloading this is my windows sbox so
6:10
we're going to use it as
6:13
demo for how to
6:15
install
6:20
Windows download tail scale it's very
6:24
small file but uh it will download more
6:27
packages for installation
6:34
that's how fast it you can get to the
6:37
tail scale on your Windows machine get
6:39
started sign to your network so that's
6:41
the one step you will need to take so
6:44
we're going to sign in with
6:54
Google connect so the device has been
6:57
logged into 50 want SEC this account so
7:02
basically it's joined the tail scale
7:06
Network so you can see it from here it
7:09
will show two machines one is our car
7:12
machine one is our Windows machine
7:16
basically those two machines are in the
7:18
same network you can treat them as
7:20
Neighbors in the same network they can
7:22
talk each other freely so we can do one
7:26
thing
7:30
you can pin right now our
7:34
IP is 100 1071
7:38
15.8 so we can pin 9.11
7:44
16.95 without problem so basically you
7:47
can do SSH you can do RTP if you need it
7:50
so they can talk each other they're in
7:52
the same private Network even physically
7:56
they in the two different location
7:58
that's try to
8:03
pin that's how easy you can get your
8:06
device into same network and then they
8:08
can talk each other no matter one is in
8:11
outside one is at home no matter where
8:13
is the location it is they can talk
8:21
freely since we already have our tail
8:24
scale Network up and running we have a
8:27
couple devices added in into our Network
8:31
now we going to testing the X node this
8:36
feature U we're going to make one of
8:39
machine we can X note so that will make
8:42
other
8:43
devices in your network to utilize this
8:49
exit node to go to internet by default
8:53
if there's no exit node you didn't
8:55
enable that all machines were using
8:58
their node loal Network to go to
9:01
internet but what we want is we want to
9:03
Route the internet traffic to Le Linux
9:08
box a node box and then we go internet
9:12
friendly because that traffic has no
9:15
restriction there for all kinds of
9:18
reason you can get more a node
9:21
explanation from this documentation
9:24
about and this also has a detail guide
9:27
how you can configure it Linux Mac OS
9:33
Windows you can choose the operating
9:36
system based on your environment and
9:38
find out the detail guide how to do that
9:41
so for this lab I'm going
9:47
to show you uh couple ways for example
9:51
if you are using Windows you want this
9:54
machine to
9:56
be X node so you can choose the icon
10:00
here and then a Noe you can wrun a mode
10:04
here that's one way how you can make it
10:06
become X note but what I'm going to
10:10
demonstrate is different I'm going
10:13
to use a Google instance Google Cloud
10:18
instance as a node we this is just new
10:22
one I just Sprint it up and I'm going to
10:25
configure it as X node and then we're
10:27
going to exit from this IP so right now
10:32
if you go
10:35
to what is your IP address you will see
10:39
your IP is my IP is this basically using
10:44
this IP to accit to the
10:47
Internet so my windows going to go here
10:50
and go to this IP then goes to the
10:52
Internet so that's what I'm going to do
10:55
let my gcp Google Cloud pform Linux l so
11:00
now let's go back to the configuration
11:04
here first thing we need to join this
11:07
machine into our
11:13
Network device n server generate script
11:18
copy shift V by the way Google Cloud
11:22
platform has a three instance you can
11:25
use for each account you can spin up one
11:28
E2 micro VM in one of those three
11:32
regions and then you will get 30 gig M
11:35
standard persistent dis for free one gig
11:39
outbound data transfer it's pretty cool
11:41
that's U Already good enough for our lab
11:45
testing so that will be our xit note
11:49
back
11:50
[Music]
11:52
here so Tails go up and you will see the
11:56
IP address
12:00
let's install one net
12:03
tools so now you get this IP so we go
12:07
back to our
12:08
machine this is our T scale X node so in
12:12
here then you can
12:15
easily add the loued
12:17
[Music]
12:19
settings so there's some requirement
12:21
before we can change this to xtion node
12:25
so we need to still scale up with Le at
12:31
X note this command so let's going to do
12:44
that IP forwarding is disabled now we
12:48
need to do some IP forwarding so we can
12:53
get that done so there's a couple of
12:56
things need to do before we can
12:59
enable a node for n
13:22
box let's do IP forwarding
13:30
let's see if we have L
13:32
Etc Das control DOD
13:44
folder yes we do so then we can run this
13:56
command after Lee now we should be able
13:59
to run this command tail scale up D-
14:04
advertise D exit Das note
14:10
perfect now right away you can see this
14:13
option is avilable save this become our
14:18
X
14:24
note let's go back to our tail scale
14:29
client on
14:30
windows so now you can see there got a
14:34
new Option here from this T scale icon a
14:38
Noe now you can
14:41
use our ninus box as our a Noe so
14:45
recommend
14:46
it and you can see this
14:49
device
14:50
using this as X note what will change it
14:55
here
14:56
before rout print
15:02
what they add a specific route here you
15:05
can see so defa traffic if we didn't
15:10
make that change let's come back here if
15:12
we didn't make this change
15:17
num we just have one default rout that's
15:20
it let's go to the local the default
15:22
everything going to go to the local
15:24
network and go that once we have our a
15:28
node
15:30
enabled we have another route to route
15:34
to this 100 100 100 100 specific IP
15:38
address for tail scale
15:40
Network that means everything going to
15:42
go through Le IP and go to T scale
15:46
Network and land through your encrypted
15:49
tunnel and come out from your gcp n box
15:54
to the internet which is our X not let's
15:58
see FL works so we go to our
16:03
browser we're going to refresh
16:06
it and see what the IP we got we got a
16:09
35 209 210 225 so now we are exit from
16:14
our Google Cloud so in this way you can
16:19
easily bypassing your local restriction
16:22
and then use your remote Network to go
16:25
to the
16:27
Internet uh that's pretty much
16:30
everything I want to explain to you
16:33
today um which is very simple easy to do
16:36
to get your tail scale Network and then
16:39
configure your exit note and then then
16:43
go to the internet using your X note by
16:46
passing some kind of censorship or URL
16:50
filtering which you have at your note I
16:53
hope you like it if you do give me a
