Maycon Santos 5e88d3f87a [management] Offer a provider's live model list in the config form (#7246)
[management] Offer a provider's live model list in the config form

Adds POST /api/agent-network/catalog/providers/models, which asks a vendor
which models an operator's own credential can actually reach, so the provider
form can offer a live list instead of only the compiled-in catalog. The catalog
goes stale, and it cannot see an account: which OpenAI models an org is
entitled to, which Bedrock inference profiles an account and region hold, which
Vertex models a project has enabled.

The endpoints, auth headers and response shapes come from probing the live APIs
(#7244); each vendor invented its own envelope and none can be guessed from the
request. Bedrock shaped the design: its listing lives on the control plane
while inference must go to the runtime host, so Discovery carries its own host
rather than reusing the record's upstream, and profile ids are taken verbatim
because the region prefix is what AWS requires at invoke time.

A caller supplies either the key they are typing or the id of a saved record
whose stored credential is reused — never both, since accepting both would run
an arbitrary credential under the identity of a record the caller may only be
permitted to read. Gated on Create rather than Read, because this spends the
operator's credential against a third party.

Management has not made outbound calls on an operator's behalf before and it
holds a credential for every provider, so every resolved address must be public
— covering loopback, RFC1918, the cloud metadata address and NetBird's own
100.64/10 range — and redirects are not followed, since a redirect moves the
request to a host the check never saw.

The vendor is authoritative for the id; the catalog stays authoritative for
pricing. A discovered model the shipped table cannot price returns
pricing_known: false so the operator must set rates rather than being
registered at a silent zero.

netbird Management Server

netbird management server will control and synchronize peers configuration within your Netbird account and network.

Command Options

The CLI accepts the command management with the following options:

start Netbird Management Server

Usage:
  netbird-mgmt management [flags]

Flags:
      --cert-file string            Location of your SSL certificate. Can be used when you have an existing certificate and don't want a new certificate be generated automatically. If letsencrypt-domain is specified this property has no effect
      --cert-key string             Location of your SSL certificate private key. Can be used when you have an existing certificate and don't want a new certificate be generated automatically. If letsencrypt-domain is specified this property has no effect
      --datadir string              server data directory location
  -h, --help                        help for management
      --letsencrypt-domain string   a domain to issue Let's Encrypt certificate for. Enables TLS using Let's Encrypt. Will fetch and renew certificate, and run the server with TLS
      --port int                    server port to listen on (default 33073)

Global Flags:
      --config string      Netbird config file location to write new config to (default "/etc/netbird")
      --log-file string    sets Netbird log path. If console is specified the the log will be output to stdout (default "/var/log/netbird/management.log")
      --log-level string    (default "info")

Run Management service (Docker)

You can run service in 2 modes - with TLS or without (not recommended).

Run with TLS (Let's Encrypt).

By specifying the --letsencrypt-domain the daemon will handle SSL certificate request and configuration.

In the following example 33073 is the management service default port, and 443 will be used as port for Let's Encrypt challenge and HTTP API.

The server where you are running a container has to have a public IP (for Let's Encrypt certificate challenge).

Replace with your server's public domain (e.g. mydomain.com or subdomain sub.mydomain.com).

# create a volume
docker volume create netbird-mgmt
# run the docker container
docker run -d --name netbird-management \
-p 33073:33073  \
-p 443:443  \
-v netbird-mgmt:/var/lib/netbird  \
-v ./config.json:/etc/netbird/config.json  \
netbirdio/management:latest \
--letsencrypt-domain <YOUR-DOMAIN>

An example of config.json can be found here management.json

Trigger Let's encrypt certificate generation:

curl https://<YOUR-DOMAIN>

The certificate will be persisted in the datadir/letsencrypt/ folder (e.g. /var/lib/netbird/letsencrypt/) inside the container.

Make sure that the datadir is mapped to some folder on a host machine. In case you used the volume command, you can run the following to retrieve the Mountpoint:

docker volume inspect netbird-mgmt
[
    {
        "CreatedAt": "2021-07-25T20:45:28Z",
        "Driver": "local",
        "Labels": {},
        "Mountpoint": "/var/lib/docker/volumes/mgmt/_data",
        "Name": "netbird-mgmt",
        "Options": {},
        "Scope": "local"
    }
]

Consequent restarts of the container will pick up previously generated certificate so there is no need to trigger certificate generation with the curl command on every restart.

Run without TLS.

# create a volume
docker volume create netbird-mgmt
# run the docker container
docker run -d --name netbird-management \
-p 33073:33073  \
-v netbird-mgmt:/var/lib/netbird  \
-v ./config.json:/etc/netbird/config.json  \
netbirdio/management:latest

Debug tag

We also publish a docker image with the debug tag which has the log-level set to default, plus it uses the gcr.io/distroless/base:debug image that can be used with docker exec in order to run some commands in the Management container.

shell $ docker run -d --name netbird-management-debug \
-p 33073:33073  \
-v netbird-mgmt:/var/lib/netbird  \
-v ./config.json:/etc/netbird/config.json  \
netbirdio/management:debug-latest

shell $ docker exec -ti netbird-management-debug /bin/sh
container-shell $
