Tailnet name type changes in the admin console
The admin console now displays a Display name field for custom tailnet names, a new Tailnet ID field for API usage, and renames the Organization field to Legacy ID. These changes clarify tailnet identification across the console, client UI, and API.
Note: For more in-depth details about all the tailnet names and types, refer to tailnet names and types.
- New: The Display name field is added to the Settings > General page of the admin console. This is an optional field that lets you assign a custom display name to your tailnet that appears in the admin console, client UI, and client CLI, instead of your domain or email address. {/* vale tailscale.tailnet-capitalization = NO */}
- New: The Tailnet ID field is added to the Settings > General page of the admin console. This string should be used in the
tailnetIdfield for Tailscale API path parameters instead of your organization name. {/* vale tailscale.tailnet-capitalization = YES */} - Changed: The Organization field in Settings > General page of the admin console is renamed Legacy ID. This field will continue to display for existing tailnets but will not display for newly created tailnets.

Linux client reconnection stability fix
Fixed an issue where the Linux client would stop tailscaled when falling behind on status updates. The client now reconnects instead of exiting, and only terminates if it cannot reconnect within one minute.
