-# DERP
-
-This is the code for the [Tailscale DERP server](https://tailscale.com/kb/1232/derp-servers).
-
-In general, you should not need to or want to run this code. The overwhelming
-majority of Tailscale users (both individuals and companies) do not.
-
-In the happy path, Tailscale establishes direct connections between peers and
-data plane traffic flows directly between them, without using DERP for more than
-acting as a low bandwidth side channel to bootstrap the NAT traversal. If you
-find yourself wanting DERP for more bandwidth, the real problem is usually the
-network configuration of your Tailscale node(s), making sure that Tailscale can
-get direction connections via some mechanism.
-
-If you've decided or been advised to run your own `derper`, then read on.
-
-## Caveats
-
-* Node sharing and other cross-Tailnet features don't work when using custom
-  DERP servers.
-
-* DERP servers only see encrypted WireGuard packets and thus are not useful for
-  network-level debugging.
-
-* The Tailscale control plane does certain geo-level steering features and
-  optimizations that are not available when using custom DERP servers.
-
-## Guide to running `cmd/derper`
-
-* You must build and update the `cmd/derper` binary yourself. There are no
-  packages. Use `go install tailscale.com/cmd/derper@latest` with the latest
-  version of Go. You should update this binary approximately as regularly as
-  you update Tailscale nodes. If using `--verify-clients`, the `derper` binary
-  and `tailscaled` binary on the machine must be built from the same git revision.
-  (It might work otherwise, but they're developed and only tested together.)
-
-* The DERP protocol does a protocol switch inside TLS from HTTP to a custom
-  bidirectional binary protocol. It is thus incompatible with many HTTP proxies.
-  Do not put `derper` behind another HTTP proxy.
-
-* The `tailscaled` client does its own selection of the fastest/nearest DERP
-  server based on latency measurements. Do not put `derper` behind a global load
-  balancer.
-
-* DERP servers should ideally have both a static IPv4 and static IPv6 address.
-Both of those should be listed in the DERP map so the client doesn't need to
-rely on its DNS which might be broken and dependent on DERP to get back up.
-
-* A DERP server should not share an IP address with any other DERP server.
-
-* Avoid having multiple DERP nodes in a region. If you must, they all need to be
-  meshed with each other and monitored. Having two one-node "regions" in the
-  same datacenter is usually easier and more reliable than meshing, at the cost
-  of more required connections from clients in some cases. If your clients
-  aren't mobile (battery constrained), one node regions are definitely
-  preferred. If you really need multiple nodes in a region for HA reasons, two
-  is sufficient.
-
-* Monitor your DERP servers with [`cmd/derpprobe`](../derpprobe/).
-
-* If using `--verify-clients`, a `tailscaled` must be running alongside the
-  `derper`, and all clients must be visible to the derper tailscaled in the ACL.
-
-* If using `--verify-clients`, a `tailscaled` must also be running alongside
-  your `derpprobe`, and `derpprobe` needs to use `--derp-map=local`.
-
-* The firewall on the `derper` should permit TCP ports 80 and 443 and UDP port
-  3478.
-
-* Only LetsEncrypt certs are rotated automatically. Other cert updates require a
-  restart.
-
-* Don't use a firewall in front of `derper` that suppresses `RST`s upon
-  receiving traffic to a dead or unknown connection.
-
-* Don't rate-limit UDP STUN packets.
-
-* Don't rate-limit outbound TCP traffic (only inbound).
-
-## Diagnostics
-
-This is not a complete guide on DERP diagnostics.
-
-Running your own DERP services requires exeprtise in multi-layer network and
-application diagnostics. As the DERP runs multiple protocols at multiple layers
-and is not a regular HTTP(s) server you will need expertise in correlative
-analysis to diagnose the most tricky problems. There is no "plain text" or
-"open" mode of operation for DERP.
-
-* The debug handler is accessible at URL path `/debug/`. It is only accessible
-  over localhost or from a Tailscale IP address.
-
-* Go pprof can be accessed via the debug handler at `/debug/pprof/`
-
-* Prometheus compatible metrics can be gathered from the debug handler at
-  `/debug/varz`.
-
-* `cmd/stunc` in the Tailscale repository provides a basic tool for diagnosing
-  issues with STUN.
-
-* `cmd/derpprobe` provides a service for monitoring DERP cluster health.
-
-* `tailscale debug derp` and `tailscale netcheck` provide additional client
-  driven diagnostic information for DERP communications.
-
-* Tailscale logs may provide insight for certain problems, such as if DERPs are
-  unreachable or peers are regularly not reachable in their DERP home regions.
-  There are many possible misconfiguration causes for these problems, but
-  regular log entries are a good first indicator that there is a problem.

-            DNSConfig can be deployed to cluster to make a subset of Tailscale MagicDNS
-            names resolvable by cluster workloads. Use this if: A) you need to refer to
-            tailnet services, exposed to cluster via Tailscale Kubernetes operator egress
-            proxies by the MagicDNS names of those tailnet services (usually because the
-            services run over HTTPS)
-            B) you have exposed a cluster workload to the tailnet using Tailscale Ingress
-            and you also want to refer to the workload from within the cluster over the
-            Ingress's MagicDNS name (usually because you have some callback component
-            that needs to use the same URL as that used by a non-cluster client on
-            tailnet).
-            When a DNSConfig is applied to a cluster, Tailscale Kubernetes operator will
-            deploy a nameserver for ts.net DNS names and automatically populate it with records
-            for any Tailscale egress or Ingress proxies deployed to that cluster.
-            Currently you must manually update your cluster DNS configuration to add the
-            IP address of the deployed nameserver as a ts.net stub nameserver.
-            Instructions for how to do it:
-            https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/administer-cluster/dns-custom-nameservers/#configuration-of-stub-domain-and-upstream-nameserver-using-coredns (for CoreDNS),
-            https://cloud.google.com/kubernetes-engine/docs/how-to/kube-dns (for kube-dns).
-            Tailscale Kubernetes operator will write the address of a Service fronting
-            the nameserver to dsnconfig.status.nameserver.ip.
-            DNSConfig is a singleton - you must not create more than one.
-            NB: if you want cluster workloads to be able to refer to Tailscale Ingress
-            using its MagicDNS name, you must also annotate the Ingress resource with
-            tailscale.com/experimental-forward-cluster-traffic-via-ingress annotation to
-            ensure that the proxy created for the Ingress listens on its Pod IP address.
-            NB: Clusters where Pods get assigned IPv6 addresses only are currently not supported.

-# systray
-
-The systray command is a minimal Tailscale systray application for Linux.
-It is designed to provide quick access to common operations like profile switching
-and exit node selection.
-
-## Supported platforms
-
-The `fyne.io/systray` package we use supports Windows, macOS, Linux, and many BSDs,
-so the systray application will likely work for the most part on those platforms.
-Notifications currently only work on Linux, as that is the main target.
