Hello everyone,
I would like to use the Captive Portal for every Tailscale devices, but I cannot create the Captive Portal rule because into the "Incoming Interface/Zone" is not present the configured Tailscale Zone

How I can configure a Captive portal for the Tailscale network?

Thank you

    Hi @Maverick87

    I think setup captive portal for Tailscale is not necessary since:

    1. The device needs to login to Tailscale before connecting to Tailscale network.
    2. The captive Portal functionality is restricted to LAN-only traffic.
    3. On the firewall, you can find the owner/user of the connecting device.
