## What is NetBird?
|
|
|
|
> NetBird is an open source, zero trust, networking platform that allows you to create secure private networks for your organization or home.

|
## Preparation
|
|
|
|
The following placeholders are used in this guide:
|
|
|
|
- `netbird.company` is the FQDN of the NetBird installation.
|
|
- `authentik.company` is the FQDN of the authentik installation.
|
|
|
|
:::info
|
|
This documentation lists only the settings that you need to change from their default values. Be aware that any changes other than those explicitly mentioned in this guide could cause issues accessing your application.

## authentik configuration
|
|
|
|
To support the integration of NetBird with authentik, you need to create an application/provider pair in authentik.
|
|
|
|
### Create an application and provider in authentik
|
|
|
|
1. Log in to authentik as an administrator and open the authentik Admin interface.
|
|
2. Navigate to **Applications** > **Applications** and click **New Application** to open the application wizard.
|
|
|
|
- **Application**: provide a descriptive name, an optional group for the type of application, the policy engine mode, and optional UI settings.
|
|
- **Choose a Provider type**: select **OAuth2/OpenID Connect** as the provider type.
|
|
- **Configure the Provider**: provide a name (or accept the auto-provided name), the authorization flow to use for this provider, and the following required configurations.
|
|
- Under **Protocol Settings**:
|
|
- Note the **Client ID**, and **slug** values because they will be required later.
|
|
- Set **Client type** to `Public`.
|
|
- Add a `Strict` redirect: `http://localhost:53000`.
|
|
- Add a `Regex` redirect: `https://<netbird.company>/.*`.
|
|
- Select any available signing key.
|
|
- Under **Advanced protocol settings**:
|
|
- Set **Access Code Validity** to `minutes=10`.
|
|
- Set **Subject Mode** to be `Based on the User's ID`.
|
|
- Add the `authentik default OAuth Mapping: OpenID 'offline_access'` and `authentik default OAuth Mapping: authentik API access` scopes to **Selected Scopes**.
|
|
- **Configure Bindings** _(optional)_: you can create a [binding](/docs/add-secure-apps/bindings-overview/) (policy, group, or user) to manage the listing and access to applications on a user's **My applications** page.
|
|
|
|
:::warning
|
|
It is important to set a signing key to secure the provider because this is a `Public` client.
|
|
:::
|
|
|
|
:::info
|
|
If an access group is created for the NetBird application, the NetBird service account must be included in the group. Otherwise you will see a 401 error after login.
|
|
:::
|
|
|
|
3. Click **Submit** to save the new application and provider.
|
|
|
|
### Set up a service account
|
|
|
|
1. Log in to authentik as an administrator and open the authentik Admin interface.
|
|
2. Navigate to **Directory** > **Users**, and click **Create a service account**.
|
|
3. Set the **Username** to `NetBird` and disable the **Create group** option. Click **Create** and take note of the **password**.
|
|
|
|
### Make the service account an administrator
|
|
|
|
NetBird requires the service account to have full administrative access to the authentik instance. Follow these steps to make it an administrator.
|
|
|
|
1. Log in to authentik as an administrator and open the authentik Admin interface.
|
|
2. Navigate to **Directory** > **Groups**, and click **`authentik Admins`**.
|
|
3. At the top of the group configuration page, switch to the **Users** tab, then click **Add existing user**, and select the service account you just created.
|
|
|
|
### Create and apply a device token authentication flow
|
|
|
|
1. Log in to authentik as an administrator and open the authentik Admin interface.
|
|
2. Navigate to **Flows and Stages** > **Flows** and click **Create**.
|
|
3. Set the following required configurations:
|
|
- **Name**: provide a name (e.g. `default-device-code-flow`)
|
|
- **Title**: provide a title (e.g. `Device code flow`)
|
|
- **Slug**: provide a slug (e.g. `default-device-code-flow`)
|
|
- **Designation**: `Stage Configuration`
|
|
- **Authentication**: `Require authentication`
|
|
4. Click **Create**.
|
|
5. Navigate to **System** > **Brands** and click the **Edit** icon on the default brand.
|
|
6. Set **Default code flow** to the newly created device code flow and click **Update**.
|
|
|
|
## NetBird configuration
|
|
|
|
To configure NetBird to use authentik, add the following environment variables to your NetBird deployment:
|
|
|
|
```yaml showLineNumbers title="setup.env"
|
|
NETBIRD_AUTH_OIDC_CONFIGURATION_ENDPOINT="https://authentik.company/application/o/<application_slug>/.well-known/openid-configuration"
|
|
NETBIRD_USE_AUTH0=false
|
|
NETBIRD_AUTH_CLIENT_ID="<Your Client ID>"
|
|
NETBIRD_AUTH_SUPPORTED_SCOPES="openid profile email offline_access api"
|
|
NETBIRD_AUTH_AUDIENCE="<Your Client ID>"
|
|
NETBIRD_AUTH_DEVICE_AUTH_CLIENT_ID="<Your Client ID>"
|
|
NETBIRD_AUTH_DEVICE_AUTH_AUDIENCE="<Your Client ID>"
|
|
NETBIRD_MGMT_IDP="authentik"
|
|
NETBIRD_IDP_MGMT_CLIENT_ID="<Your Client ID>"
|
|
NETBIRD_IDP_MGMT_EXTRA_USERNAME="NetBird"
|
|
NETBIRD_IDP_MGMT_EXTRA_PASSWORD="<Your Service Account password>"
|
|
NETBIRD_AUTH_REDIRECT_URI="/auth"
|
|
NETBIRD_AUTH_SILENT_REDIRECT_URI="/silent-auth"
|
|
|
|
# needs disabling due to issue with IdP. Learn more at https://github.com/netbirdio/netbird/issues/3654
|
|
NETBIRD_AUTH_PKCE_DISABLE_PROMPT_LOGIN=true
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Restart the NetBird service for the changes to take effect. If using Docker, redeploy the NetBird container for the changes to take effect.
|
|
|
|
## Configuration verification
|
|
|
|
To confirm that authentik is properly configured with NetBird, log out and log back in via authentik.
|
|
|
|
## Troubleshooting
|
|
|
|
When accessing NetBird through a reverse proxy, you might encounter a loop where the `/peers` URL continuously reloads. To resolve this, set the following variables accordingly:
|
|
|
|
```yaml title="setup.env"
|
|
NETBIRD_MGMT_API_PORT=443
|
|
NETBIRD_SIGNAL_PORT=443
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Run the `configure.sh` script for the change to take effect.
