<![CDATA[NetBird - WireGuard based VPN]]>NetBird combines a configuration-free peer-to-peer private network and a centralized access control system in a single platform, making it easy to create secure private networks for your organization or home.

Connect. NetBird creates a WireGuard-based overlay network that automatically connects your machines over an encrypted tunnel, leaving behind the hassle of opening ports, complex firewall rules, VPN gateways, and so forth.

Secure. NetBird enables secure remote access by applying granular access policies, while allowing you to manage them intuitively from a single place. Works universally on any infrastructure.

@girish and team - This would be great!
https://netbird.io/knowledge-hub/local-users-simplified-idp
Built-in user management - Create users directly from the Dashboard using the embedded Dex serverโ€”no external IdP required. Secure by default with bcrypt-hashed passwords and AES-256-GCM encryption
Simplified deployment - Reduced from 7+ containers down to just 5. No separate database for the IdP, no extra containers to maintain. The quickstart script handles everything automaticallyโ€”from container deployment to reverse proxy configuration
Interactive setup wizard - When you first access the Dashboard, a setup wizard guides you through creating your admin account. That's itโ€”you're done
Easy external IdP integration - Connect multiple SSO providers simultaneously (Google, Microsoft, Okta, Keycloak, etc.) directly from the Dashboard. No config files to edit, no service restarts. Optional JWT group sync automatically provisions groups from your IdP

Running on their host now, but would love to have our own server on Cloudron. This is much more powerful than the basic wireguard in the VPN app. Please?

Since i only use Netbird client on Cloudron to run backups from Cloudron to my homelab.

I do not understand a thing. Is there a way to use Netbird on a cloudron app ?

Because there's a interest for a write up about my experience with Netbird, i shall try to write something about it here in the forum in the upcoming time.
I never did a write up before, so a bit challenging but also fun and exciting to do for me ๐Ÿคž

Looking forward to it, if you like some kind (if!) of feedback, write me ๐Ÿ™‚

One notable thing is that Netbird uses Rosenpass.eu, allegedly post quantum secure set of algorithms that works with Wireguard.

Am using it for snmp monitoring and smb/nfs acces to allow only specific servers and or ports together.
This can be achieved by setting up the ACL's on the main page of Netbird (selfhosted).

I say this would be a very interesting potential app for Cloudron ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ˜‰
