[Feature Request] Native NetBird Package Support for TOS (Zero Trust / Mesh VPN)

[Cimmerio]

Hi TerraMaster Team and Community,

I would like to submit a feature proposal to request native package support for NetBird in the TOS App Center, similar to the current native integration available for Tailscale.

What is NetBird?
NetBird is an open-source Zero Trust mesh networking platform built on top of WireGuard. It allows users to create direct, end-to-end encrypted overlay networks connecting NAS devices, servers, laptops, and cloud workloads without requiring public IP addresses, complex firewall rules, or port forwarding.

Why NetBird would be a valuable addition to TOS:

• CGNAT & Remote Access Friendly: Enables effortless and secure remote connectivity to the NAS from anywhere, even behind strict CGNAT setups or corporate firewalls.
• Open Source & Self-Hostable Control Plane: Unlike alternative solutions, NetBird allows users to self-host both the management and signal servers, which is ideal for privacy-conscious users and enterprise environments.
• WireGuard Performance: Provides high-throughput, low-latency connections suitable for large file transfers, offsite backups, and media streaming.
• Access Control Policies (ACLs) & SSO Integration: Offers built-in access management and seamless integration with Identity Providers (Okta, Azure AD, Keycloak, Authentic, etc.).

Having an official native package for NetBird (or integration via the App Center) would make deployment straightforward for users who prefer native OS services over Docker container management for core networking layer utilities.

Thank you for considering this request!

TOS 7 will soon open up its app marketplace to third-party developers. We encourage developers to build and publish similar third-party applications there.
