## Community documentation

Community documentation is not actively maintained by the headscale authors and is

written by community members. It is _not_ verified by `headscale` developers.

## Misc

### Policy ACLs
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Headscale implements the same policy ACLs as Tailscale.com, adapted to the self-hosted environment.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For instance, instead of referring to users when defining groups you must
|
|
|
|
use namespaces (which are the equivalent to user/logins in Tailscale.com).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Please check https://tailscale.com/kb/1018/acls/, and `./tests/acls/` in this repo for working examples.
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
When using ACL's the Namespace borders are no longer applied. All machines
|
|
|
|
whichever the Namespace have the ability to communicate with other hosts as
|
|
|
|
long as the ACL's permits this exchange.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The [ACLs](acls.md) document should help understand a fictional case of setting
|
|
|
|
up ACLs in a small company. All concepts presented in this document could be
|
|
|
|
applied outside of business oriented usage.

### Apple devices

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
An endpoint with information on how to connect your Apple devices (currently macOS only) is available at `/apple` on your running instance.
