Run netbird locally

Describe the problem

I was checking the Quickstart guide for self hosting but I don't want to expose port 80 and 443 to the internet.

Expected behavior

How can it be installed without exposing port 80 and 443?

Are you using NetBird Cloud?

No

@scorpio2k2 unless you are running on localhost and connecting clients locally, too, you need an SSL certificate; the guide tries to handle certificates with caddy or certbot, but you should be able to configure the dashboard container (nginx) or caddy configuration files with paths to your certificates.

I was able to install it with getting-started-with-zitadel script but now I have other questions:

• How upgrades are handled now?
• How certificates are renewed?

[mlsmaycon]

Certificates are handled by Caddy, which auto-renews them every three months using either Zerossl or Let's Encrypt.

For upgrades, you just need to pull new images: https://docs.netbird.io/selfhosted/selfhosted-quickstart#upgrade
