## Summary
Adds a unified `admin` CLI for self-hosted instance administrators in
both the management and combined binaries.
## User Management
### `admin user change-password`
- Changes a local embedded IdP user's password.
- Selects the user with `--email` or `--user-id`.
- Reads the new password from `--password` or `--password-file`.
- Clears the user's local authentication session so the new password is
required on the next login.
- **Alias:** `admin user set-password`.
### `admin user reset-mfa`
- Resets a local embedded IdP user's MFA enrollment.
- Selects the user with `--email` or `--user-id`.
- Clears TOTP/WebAuthn enrollment data and removes the local
authentication session.
- The user will re-enroll MFA on the next login.
## MFA Management
### `admin mfa status`
- Shows whether local MFA is enabled in the account settings.
- Checks the embedded IdP client configuration and reports whether MFA
is enabled there.
### `admin mfa enable`
- Enables local MFA for embedded IdP users.
- Updates embedded IdP clients and saves the account MFA setting.
- Records an audit event on a best-effort basis.
### `admin mfa disable`
- Disables local MFA for embedded IdP users.
- Updates embedded IdP clients and saves the account MFA setting.
- Records an audit event on a best-effort basis.
## Reverse Proxy Tokens
### `admin token create --name <name> [--expires-in <duration>]`
- Creates a reverse proxy access token.
- Prints the plaintext token once, along with the token ID.
- `--expires-in` supports values such as `24h`, `30d`, or `365d`. If
omitted, the token never expires.
### `admin token list`
- Lists reverse proxy access tokens.
- Shows the token ID, name, creation date, expiration, last-used time,
and revocation status.
- **Alias:** `admin token ls`.
### `admin token revoke <token-id>`
- Revokes a reverse proxy access token.
- Revoked tokens can no longer authenticate reverse proxy instances.
## Reverse Proxy Management
### `admin proxy disconnect-all`
- Lists registered reverse proxy instances and force-marks all connected
instances as disconnected.
- Useful for repairing stale proxy state after an unclean management
server shutdown.
- Prompts for confirmation by default.
- `--dry-run` previews the changes without applying them.
- `--force` skips the confirmation prompt.
- Live proxies may appear again after their next heartbeat, reconnect,
or re-registration.
## Compatibility Commands
### `token ...`
- Deprecated top-level compatibility path.
- Behaves the same as `admin token ...`.
- Retained so existing scripts using `token create`, `token list`, or
`token revoke` continue to work.
## Changes
- Adds reusable `management/cmd/admin` command package.
- Wires `admin` into `netbird-mgmt` and `combined`.
- Adds local user password reset with existing password strength
validation.
- Adds local MFA enrollment reset by clearing Dex TOTP/WebAuthn
credentials and local auth sessions.
- Adds local MFA enable/disable/status helpers for embedded IdP
deployments.
- Moves proxy access token commands under `admin token` for a single
admin-focused CLI entry point.
- Exports `server.ValidatePassword` for reuse by CLI helpers.
## Tests
```bash
go test ./management/cmd/...
go test ./management/cmd/admin ./management/cmd ./combined/cmd
go test ./management/server -run TestValidatePassword
```
Pre-push lint also passed.

## Summary by CodeRabbit
## Release Notes
* **New Features**
* Added self-hosted admin CLI commands for changing passwords, resetting
MFA (including WebAuthn), and managing embedded IdP client MFA
(enable/disable/status).
* Introduced a unified admin command entry point and improved
data-directory handling for embedded IdP storage.
* **Refactor**
* Centralized password strength validation into a shared exported
validator.
* **Tests**
* Added a comprehensive admin command test suite covering password
input, selectors, MFA reset, and client MFA state handling.
<!-- end of auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai -->
* Made the docker check first for getting-started.sh, better atomic support for install.sh
* Check for docker socket perms
* Added fallback for systems without rpm-ostree or bootc.
* macOS fix for docker socket check
* Change error message for docker group.
No longer using a blanket recommendation for the docker group.
* [infrastructure] allow docker image overrides for getting started
Make dashboard and server image configurations overrideable via environment variables
* [infrastructure] update Traefik gRPC rule to include ProxyService PathPrefix
* make Traefik and CrowdSec images configurable via environment variables
* Unified NetBird combined server (Management, Signal, Relay, STUN) as a single executable with richer YAML configuration, validation, and defaults.
* Official Dockerfile/image for single-container deployment.
* Optional in-process profiling endpoint for diagnostics.
* Multiplexing to route HTTP/gRPC/WebSocket traffic via one port; runtime hooks to inject custom handlers.
* **Chores**
* Updated deployment scripts, compose files, and reverse-proxy templates to target the combined server; added example configs and getting-started updates.
* add external reverse proxy config steps to quickstart script
* remove generated files
* - Remove 'press enter' prompt from post-traefik config since traefik requires no manual config
- Improve npm flow (ask users for docker network, user container names in config)
* fixes for npm flow
* nginx flow fixes
* caddy flow fixes
* Consolidate NPM_NETWORK, NGINX_NETWORK, CADDY_NETWORK into single
EXTERNAL_PROXY_NETWORK variable. Add read_proxy_docker_network()
function that prompts for Docker network for options 2-4 (Nginx,
NPM, Caddy). Generated configs now use container names when a
Docker network is specified.
* fix https for traefik
* fix sonar code smells
* fix sonar smell (add return to render_dashboard_env)
* added tls instructions to nginx flow
* removed unused bind_addr variable from quickstart.sh
* Refactor getting-started.sh for improved maintainability
Break down large functions into focused, single-responsibility components:
- Split init_environment() into 6 initialization functions
- Split print_post_setup_instructions() into 6 proxy-specific functions
- Add section headers for better code organization
- Fix 3 code smell issues (unused bind_addr variables)
- Add TLS certificate documentation for Nginx
- Link reverse proxy names to docs sections
Reduces largest function from 205 to ~90 lines while maintaining
single-file distribution. No functional changes.
* - Remove duplicate network display logic in Traefik instructions
- Use upstream_host instead of bind_addr for NPM forward hostname
- Use upstream_host instead of bind_addr in manual proxy route examples
- Prevents displaying invalid 0.0.0.0 as connection target in setup instructions
* add wait_management_direct to caddy flow to ensure script waits until containers are running/passing healthchecks before reporting 'done!'
* Enforce HttpConfig overwrite when embeddedIdp is enabled
* Disable offline_access scope in dashboard by default
* Add group propagation foundation to embedded idp
* Require groups scope in dex config for okt and pocket
* remove offline_access from device default scopes
Embed Dex as a built-in IdP to simplify self-hosting setup.
Adds an embedded OIDC Identity Provider (Dex) with local user management and optional external IdP connectors (Google/GitHub/OIDC/SAML), plus device-auth flow for CLI login. Introduces instance onboarding/setup endpoints (including owner creation), field-level encryption for sensitive user data, a streamlined self-hosting provisioning script, and expanded APIs + test coverage for IdP management.

This pull request fixes a bug where the HTTP/WebSocket proxy server was not using custom TLS certificates when provided via --cert-file and --cert-key flags. Previously, only the gRPC server had TLS enabled with custom certificates, while the HTTP/WebSocket proxy ran without TLS.
This PR introduces a new configuration option `DisableDefaultPolicy` that prevents the creation of the default all-to-all policy when new accounts are created. This is useful for automation scenarios where explicit policies are preferred.
### Key Changes:
- Added DisableDefaultPolicy flag to the management server config
- Modified account creation logic to respect this flag
- Updated all test cases to explicitly pass the flag (defaulting to false to maintain backward compatibility)
- Propagated the flag through the account manager initialization chain
### Testing:
- Verified default behavior remains unchanged when flag is false
- Confirmed no default policy is created when flag is true
- All existing tests pass with the new parameter
