Tagged nodes no longer need key renewal, which means it's easier than ever to manage servers

Tailscale has simplified server management by allowing tagged nodes to bypass key renewal, a change that removes the need for periodic reauthentication of these devices, which typically lack an associated user. This update means that when devices are authenticated and assigned an ACL tag, their key expiry is disabled by default, simplifying management especially for servers, subnet routers, or exit nodes. Administrators can easily manage key expiry settings through the admin console or API, ensuring flexibility. Recent features facilitate the process of setting up a server on Tailscale by using ACL tags to assign permissions and generate auth keys for authentication, streamlining the integration of servers into a network without repeated reauthentication, thereby enhancing ease of maintenance and automation.
