Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/netbirdio/netbird/issues/438

On Windows Device the Network created by the NetApp is labeled as a Public network.

Workaround for now:

PowerShell: Set-NetConnectionProfile -InterfaceAlias 'wt0' -NetworkCategory 'Private'

or :

Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\NetworkList\Profiles
Change "Category" from 0 to 1

We plan to use Windows Packet Filter integration to do this automatically.
