How do I get remote access to my monitoring system?

Hi guys, I am pretty new to the proxmox environment and know little about networking.

The thing is, I have a minipc with proxmox on it. I just made Debian VM with no GUI, then installed a Docker, and then Agent DVR as a container in that Docker.

Agent DVR is free for personal and local use. What should I do next to get remote access to Agent DVR from outside my local network?

I assume I need to use some kind of VPN, right? Or would it be better to use Tailscale? I have already installed Tailscale in my Home Assistant in Proxmox but if I am doing it right it will only work for this HA machine.

So now I need to install Tailscale on my Debian VM where I have installed Docker with Agent DVR container? Will tailscale then have access to the Agent DVR in the container?
I got this instruction https://tailscale.com/kb/1174/install-debian-bookworm

#edit
I have installed Tailscalne on VM Debian and it looks ok but what port should I type after IP to get access to this machine?
for HA is :8123. For proxmox is :8006 what what would be for Debian 12?

This is not really Proxmox-related but I'll still answer... Theoratically if you install Tailscale in your Debian Docker VM you should see it appear in your connected devices on your Tailscale account (I think). It will be given a IP in Tailscale's network, that you can use to connect to it. As the default AgentDVR port appears to be 8090 (if you haven't modified your docker stack), you should be able to access your AgentDVR instance using the previously mentionned IP with the 8090 port ...

Have a nice one, and happy tinkering !

It's tough to manage unix os. I configured everything, and just after that, I reached AgentDVR on my real PC through tailscale IP 100.x.x.x:8090, even on the smartphone. Then I made a startup script to run tailscale after reboot. I rebooted, tailscale got up, I can ping my Tailscale IP but no connection with AgentDVR anymore on PC and smartfone. The container is running. This is imposibru
