Problem

I have a Netbird peer version 0.43.3 and a simple http service deployed on 8888 port on it.
I can open 8888 port from the local address, but can't open using netbird address.

Some notes

  • ssh opens fine with both addresses
  • when I downgrade netbird on this peer to version 0.39.2 it works fine.

So, I think somethings broken in the new version.

What is your operating system?
Can you confirm whether there is anything listening on the NetBird's IP address and port 8888?

Hello, @nazarewk !
Thank you for the quick response.
OS: Ubuntu 24.04 Server
Netbird: selfhosted
Yes, I can confirm listening to the local 8888 port on any IP address (0.0.0.0:8888) and successfully connecting to it by LAN address.

Have you set up any [Policies] or [Networks] for it? @netandreus
I have the same environment as you, but I can normally access it.

I encountered this issue before when I didn't understand the [Policies]. Here, [Source] represents the visitor, and [Destination] is the resource group. If a specific [Protocol] is specified, specific [Ports] must be designated; otherwise, it cannot be accessed.

There are also 【Posture Checks】 here, and these checks also affect access.

I hope it is helpful to you

Yes, I think it was because some cache in netbird. I had peers with the same names. With new one - all fine.
