Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
We manage shared computers with multiple users, and we need the VPN to establish automatically upon login. However, since users have different access rights to various networks, we cannot rely on a setup key for authentication.

Describe the solution you'd like
We would like the ability to log in to NetBird via the command line using an auth token. This would allow us to retrieve an auth token from our Identity Provider (IDP) using PowerShell and then use it for authentication.

Describe alternatives you've considered
We’re open to suggestions—are there any alternative solutions that could achieve the same goal?
