- Cluster Egress: Expose Netmaker network services to Kubernetes workloads using standard Service names.
- Cluster Ingress: Expose Kubernetes services to devices on your Netmaker network.
- API Proxy: Secure access to Kubernetes API servers through Netmaker tunnels with RBAC support.
🔄 Auto Removal of Offline Peers
- Automatically removes nodes that have been offline for a configurable threshold period.
- Configurable per network with customizable timeout thresholds (in minutes).
- Supports tag-based filtering to selectively apply auto-removal to specific device groups.
- Helps maintain clean network topology by removing stale or abandoned peer connections.
🧩 Onboarding Flow
- Streamlined user onboarding experience during signup for workspace setup.
🧰 Improvements & Fixes
- Azure IDP sync: Fixed User sync by group filters.
- User Migration: Optimised User migration logic to reduce server start up time.
- Config Files: Avoid Auto enabling of configs on user login.
- Egress Domain Updates: Fixed domain-related issues in egress configurations to ensure consistent routing behavior.
Known Issues 🐞
- netclients cannot auto-upgrade on ipv6-only machines.
- Need to optimize multi-network netclient join with enrollment key
- On systems using systemd-resolved in uplink mode, the first 3 entries in resolv.conf are used and rest are ignored. So it might cause DNS issues. Stub mode is preferred.
