Once upon a time, besides the star-endpoint network model, many small networks used a peer-to-peer (P2P) model. You may recall it from such network operating systems as LANtastic and Windows for Workgroups. Now, new company Tailscale is taking that old idea and adding in the new open-source Wireguard Virtual Private Network (VPN) to create a new kind of secure P2P mesh network for the computers and containers of the 21st century.
