Pure plumbing, no change on the wire. Both halves exist for the same reason: the value this PR needs to publish is not reachable from the code paths that have to publish it, and widening the signatures is separable from moving the value. On the management side, the resolution between the account setting and the server-config default moves into resolveDebugUploadURL, and the default becomes a parameter that ToSyncResponse and ToComponentSyncResponse take rather than something read off the server config at the point of use. The callers that have a server config pass its value, which is what the code read before, so every response keeps the destination it had. The peer fan-out builds its sync with a nil server config, so anything derived from that config inside the conversion is unavailable there; a parameter is reachable from the fan-out. On the client side, Engine.Start takes the login response's PeerConfig. Nothing reads it yet.
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 $
