The Management Service's responsibilities include:
* **Registering and authenticating new peers.** Every new machine has to register itself in the network in order to connect to other machines.
After installation, NetBird client requires login that can be done through Identity Provider (IDP) or with a [setup key](/overview/setup-keys).

* **Keeping the network map.** The Management service stores information about all the registered peers including Wireguard public key that was sent during the registration process.
* **Managing private IP addresses.** Each peer receives a unique private IP with which it can be identified in the network.

4. Administrator (or a user) installs NetBird client and runs ```netbird up``` command providing one of the setup keys.
5. NetBird client generates Wireguard private and public keys along with the initial configuration.
6. NetBird client sends a registration request to the NetBird Management service calling Login gRPC endpoint, providing setup key, Wireguard public key and additional information about the machine.
