tsblock prevents Tailscale from using specific network interfaces.

tsblock is developed to work around tailscale/tailscale#7594. Currently, interfaces whose name matches ^vxlan\.calico$|^cali are blocked. The pattern is hard-coded in main.go.

Requirements

  • Tailscale must be running as a systemd service.
  • tsblock must run as root. It is recommended to run tsblock as a systemd service.

How it works

tsblock utilizes eBPF to drop packets sent from tailscaled.service systemd unit.

Install

go build
sudo ./systemd/install.sh
sudo systemctl daemon-reload
sudo systemctl enable --now tsblock.service

Uninstall

sudo systemctl disable --now tsblock.service
sudo ./systemd/uninstall.sh
