Adds Relay.HasURLs/AllURLs helpers so all relay-enabled checks use the
same definition ("any URL is configured, regardless of whether it came
from Addresses or Endpoints"), and a Normalize step run at startup that:
- Drops unknown transport identifiers (anything outside ws/quic/wt),
reporting them via a warning log so misconfigurations surface loudly
instead of being silently advertised to clients.
- De-duplicates endpoint URLs and per-endpoint transports.
- Preserves empty Transports lists — that's the valid "unknown, let the
client try whatever it supports" signal, distinct from a typo'd list.
The two relay-token guard sites in server.go switch to HasURLs so a
deployment with only Endpoints (no Addresses) actually issues tokens;
before this change those branches would skip token generation. The
startup log now prints the merged URL list plus per-endpoint transport
hints, matching what clients will receive.
Two follow-ups to the WebTransport/ALPN-mux landing:
Deployment templates publish UDP alongside TCP for the relay so the
single ALPN-multiplexed socket can serve raw QUIC and WebTransport
clients on the same port as the existing WebSocket transport.
- docker-compose.yml.tmpl: adds the matching `/udp` mapping; the relay
was already binding both stacks, the host port just wasn't published.
- docker-compose.yml.tmpl.traefik: WebTransport is the awkward case —
Traefik can't proxy WT sessions, so the relay container now publishes
UDP/443 directly and obtains its own Let's Encrypt cert (separate
volume), while the TCP /relay route stays behind Traefik unchanged so
WS-only clients keep working.
Management server learned to advertise per-relay transport hints:
- Config gains an optional `Endpoints []{URL, Transports}` block on the
Relay section, mirrored to clients as RelayConfig.endpoints.
- `Addresses` is still emitted as RelayConfig.urls so older agents keep
working unchanged.
- A single BuildRelayConfigProto helper is the only place that builds
the proto, called from both toNetbirdConfig and the token push paths.
The GeoDNS case is operator-asserted, not probed: a single URL fans out
to several physical relays, and the Transports list must already be the
intersection of what every backend supports. Documented on the config
struct — if any backend behind a hostname can't speak h3, the operator
drops "wt" from that hostname's list and no client tries it there.
When closing go routines and handling peer disconnect, we should avoid canceling the flow due to parent gRPC context cancellation.
This change triggers disconnection handling with a context that is not bound to the parent gRPC cancellation.
* Add support for legacy IDP cache environment variable
* Centralize cache store creation to reuse a single Redis connection pool
Each cache consumer (IDP cache, token store, PKCE store, secrets manager,
EDR validator) was independently calling NewStore, creating separate Redis
clients with their own connection pools — up to 1400 potential connections
from a single management server process.
Introduce a shared CacheStore() singleton on BaseServer that creates one
store at boot and injects it into all consumers. Consumer constructors now
receive a store.StoreInterface instead of creating their own.
For Redis mode, all consumers share one connection pool (1000 max conns).
For in-memory mode, all consumers share one GoCache instance.
* Update management-integrations module to latest version
* sync go.sum
* Export `GetAddrFromEnv` to allow reuse across packages
* Update management-integrations module version in go.mod and go.sum
* Update management-integrations module version in go.mod and go.sum
Remove client secret from gRPC auth flow. The secret was originally included to support providers like Google Workspace that don't offer a proper PKCE flow, but this is no longer necessary with the embedded IdP. Deployments using such providers should migrate to the embedded IdP instead.
Auto-update logic moved out of the UI into a dedicated updatemanager.Manager service that runs in the connection layer. The
UI no longer polls or checks for updates independently.
The update manager supports three modes driven by the management server's auto-update policy:
No policy set by mgm: checks GitHub for the latest version and notifies the user (previous behavior, now centralized)
mgm enforces update: the "About" menu triggers installation directly instead of just downloading the file — user still initiates the action
mgm forces update: installation proceeds automatically without user interaction
updateManager lifecycle is now owned by daemon, giving the daemon server direct control via a new TriggerUpdate RPC
Introduces EngineServices struct to group external service dependencies passed to NewEngine, reducing its argument count from 11 to 4
Consolidate all expose business logic (validation, permission checks, TTL tracking, reaping) into the manager layer, making the gRPC layer a pure transport adapter that only handles proto conversion and authentication.
- Add ExposeServiceRequest/ExposeServiceResponse domain types with validation in the reverseproxy package
- Move expose tracker (TTL tracking, reaping, per-peer limits) from gRPC server into manager/expose_tracker.go
- Internalize tracking in CreateServiceFromPeer, RenewServiceFromPeer, and new StopServiceFromPeer so callers don't manage tracker state
- Untrack ephemeral services in DeleteService/DeleteAllServices to keep tracker in sync when services are deleted via API
- Simplify gRPC expose handlers to parse, auth, convert, delegate
- Remove tracker methods from Manager interface (internal detail)
CLI: new expose command to publish a local port with flags for PIN, password, user groups, custom domain, name prefix and protocol (HTTP default).
Management/API: create/renew/stop expose sessions (streamed status), automatic naming/domain, TTL renewals, background expiration, new management RPCs and client methods.
UI/API: account settings now include peer_expose_enabled and peer_expose_groups; new activity codes for peer expose events.
* Add gRPC update debouncing mechanism
Implements backpressure handling for peer network map updates to
efficiently handle rapid changes. First update is sent immediately,
subsequent rapid updates are coalesced, ensuring only the latest
update is sent after a 1-second quiet period.
* Enhance unit test to verify peer count synchronization with debouncing and timeout handling
* Debounce based on type
* Refactor test to validate timer restart after pending update dispatch
* Simplify timer reset for Go 1.23+ automatic channel draining
Remove manual channel drain in resetTimer() since Go 1.23+ automatically
drains the timer channel when Stop() returns false, making the
select-case pattern unnecessary.
When a deleted peer tries to reconnect, GetUserIDByPeerKey was returning
Internal error instead of NotFound, causing clients to retry indefinitely
instead of recognizing the unrecoverable PermissionDenied error.
This fix:
1. Updates GetUserIDByPeerKey to properly return NotFound when peer doesn't exist
2. Updates Sync handler to convert NotFound to PermissionDenied with message
'peer is not registered', matching the behavior of GetAccountIDForPeerKey
Fixes the regression introduced in v0.61.1 where deleted peers would see:
- Before: 'rpc error: code = Internal desc = failed handling request' (retry loop)
- After: 'rpc error: code = PermissionDenied desc = peer is not registered' (exits)
* **New Features**
* SSH server JWT validation now accepts multiple audiences with backward-compatible handling of the previous single-audience setting and a guard ensuring at least one audience is configured.
* **Tests**
* Test suites updated and new tests added to cover multiple-audience scenarios and compatibility with existing behavior.
* **Other**
* Startup logging enhanced to report configured audiences for JWT auth.
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.
