Community contributor aantti has developed an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for NetBird, enabling seamless integration of NetBird's network data into LLM-powered tools like Claude Desktop and Codeium Windsurf.

This tool provides read-only access to NetBird resources such as peers, groups, policies, and networks, facilitating enhanced observability and automation. It's particularly beneficial for users aiming to incorporate NetBird insights into their AI-driven workflows.

Customize the domain name assigned to your machines

The custom DNS domain has been a highly anticipated feature by the community. It is now possible to change the domain for all your NetBird peers on a per-account basis. This means you can replace the previously fixed peer1.netbird.cloud FQDN with your own custom domain, such as peer1.my-org.com. Please note that these DNS records are only available for NetBird peers connected to the NetBird management server.
