NetBird creates an overlay peer-to-peer network connecting machines automatically regardless of their location (home, office, datacenter, container, cloud or edge environments) unifying virtual private network management experience.
**Key features:**
* Automatic IP allocation and management.
* Automatic WireGuard peer (machine) discovery and configuration.
* Encrypted peer-to-peer connections without a central VPN gateway.
* Connection relay fallback in case a peer-to-peer connection is not possible.
* Network management layer with a neat Web UI panel ([separate repo](https://github.com/netbirdio/dashboard))
* Desktop client applications for Linux, MacOS, and Windows.
* Multiuser support - sharing network between multiple users.
* SSO and MFA support.
* Multicloud and hybrid-cloud support.
* Kernel WireGuard usage when possible.
* Access Controls - groups & rules (coming soon).
* Private DNS (coming soon).
* Mobile clients (coming soon).
* Network Activity Monitoring (coming soon).

### A bit on NetBird internals
* Every machine in the network runs [NetBird Agent (or Client)](client/) that manages WireGuard.
* NetBird features [Management Service](management/) that holds network state, manages peer IPs, and distributes network updates to peers.
* Every agent is connected to Management Service.
* NetBird agent uses WebRTC ICE implemented in [pion/ice library](https://github.com/pion/ice) to discover connection candidates when establishing a peer-to-peer connection between machines.
* Connection candidates are discovered with a help of [STUN](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/STUN) server.
* Agents negotiate a connection through [Signal Service](signal/) passing p2p encrypted messages.
* Signal Service uses public WireGuard keys to route messages between peers.
* Sometimes the NAT traversal is unsuccessful due to strict NATs (e.g. mobile carrier-grade NAT) and p2p connection isn't possible. When this occurs the system falls back to a relay server called [TURN](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traversal_Using_Relays_around_NAT), and a secure WireGuard tunnel is established via the TURN server.
