I am not very knowledgeable about networking. I found I can connect to my Jellyfin server if I set under Networking “Allow remote connections” and in the remote IP address filter I put the remote IP that Tailscale assigns to my iPhone.

Is this how it’s supposed to work? I didn’t expect to have to use Remote Access Settings. I thought the point of Tailscale is to make it like you are on a local network.

I use tailscale and it connects as if I'm on the local network. I use the work profile on my phone to isolate Jellyfin and tailscale so I don't have to drop off my main VPN when I'm not home.

When I turn Tailscale on my iPhone disconnects from AdGuard DNS/VPN. Could I avoid this by using a profile like you described?

I'm not familiar with the work profile on iOS, but on Android, the work profile runs on a separate network. This allows one to have two VPNs running at a time. One for non-work profile and others in the work profile.
