OpenVLAN on Synology

Your DiskStation joins the tailnet with a native DSM 7 package — no containers, no SSH gymnastics.

Install

1 · Package Center

Search "OpenVLAN" in Package Center on DSM 7.x and install.

2 · Sign in

Open the app and authenticate with your tailnet account.

3 · Done

The NAS appears in your device list as diskstation by MagicDNS.

Popular uses

Taildrop target

Send files to the NAS from any device — phone, laptop, tablet — without cloud sync.

Private services

Photo Station, Note Station, and Plex stay off the internet but reachable anywhere.

Subnet router

Advertise your home LAN so the whole tailnet reaches local devices through the NAS.

Compatibility

DSM versions

DSM 7.0 and later. DSM 6 requires the community package.

Models

All x86_64 models; most ARM models (Realtek RTD1296/RTD1619B and newer) supported.
