Introduction
Connecting remotely to computers remains a challenge. The industry’s response to that is VPN. ZeroTier is a popular VPN platform for creating secure private networks. It helps safely connect to your machines from anywhere in the world and safely access servers in the cloud. It enables intranet applications for external users. Last but not least, it can be used to provide remote assistance to family and friends, while keeping them safe from bad wolves out there.
Best of all, ZeroTier is free for up to 50 connected machines. Ability to manage it with REST API and scripts makes it particularly interesting for advanced users.
