### Configuring Mutual TLS Authentication (mTLS)
mTLS is a method by which an HTTPS server authenticates clients, e.g. Tailscale,
using TLS certificates. The capability can be configured by by applying one of
the following values to the `tls_client_auth_mode` setting in the configuration
file.
| Value | Behavior |
| ----- | -------- |
| `disabled` | Disable mTLS (default). |
| `relaxed` | A client certificate is required, but it is not verified. |
| `enforced` | Requires clients to supply a certificate that is verified. |
```yaml
tls_client_auth_mode: ""
```
