Connect to the private network

Applications marked NetBird in your Workspace are not on the open internet. Your device reaches them through NetBird, a small app that opens an encrypted connection to A3JM's private network. You set it up once per device; after that it connects by itself.

You need two things: the NetBird app on your device, and this server address, typed exactly as shown: https://netbird.a3jm.com. You sign in with your usual A3JM account (the same one as this Workspace). There is no separate NetBird password.

iPhone or iPad

  1. Open the App Store, search for NetBird, tap Get and confirm with Face ID or your passcode.
  2. Tap Open.
  3. On the first screen, choose to change the server (it may say Change server, Continue with Management URL or Advanced) and type https://netbird.a3jm.com.
  4. Tap Connect. When iPhone asks to Add VPN Configurations, tap Allow and confirm with your passcode. This is how NetBird creates the encrypted connection.
  5. A sign-in page opens: tap Continue with A3JM, sign in, and confirm with your authenticator.
  6. Back in the app it shows Connected. Done.

Android

  1. Open the Play Store, search for NetBird, tap Install.
  2. Tap Open.
  3. Choose to change the server and type https://netbird.a3jm.com, then Continue.
  4. Tap Connect. When Android asks to allow a VPN connection, tap OK.
  5. On the sign-in page tap Continue with A3JM, sign in, confirm with your authenticator.
  6. The app shows Connected. Done.

Mac, Windows or Linux

  1. Download NetBird from netbird.io/download and install it like any other app.
  2. Open NetBird. Its icon appears in the menu bar (Mac) or the system tray (Windows).
  3. Click the icon → Settings → set the Management URL to https://netbird.a3jm.com and save.
  4. Click Connect. Your browser opens: Continue with A3JM, sign in, confirm with your authenticator. On a Mac, allow the VPN / network extension if asked.
  5. The icon shows Connected. Done.

Using it

  1. Keep NetBird connected (it reconnects by itself after a restart). Then open the NetBird-marked applications from your Workspace as usual.
  2. Once a week NetBird asks you to sign in again. Tap Continue with A3JM: if you answered Yes to Stay signed in? at your last sign-in, a browser page opens and closes by itself; otherwise enter your password and 6-digit code.
  3. Sign-in refused? Your account has not been given private-network access yet. Ask the person who approved your account; nothing on your device is wrong.
  4. An application does not open? Check that the NetBird app says Connected, then reload the page.
  5. Lost or replaced a device? Tell an administrator so the old device is removed from the network.

The address https://netbird.a3jm.com is the network's control server: you only type it into the app. Opening it in a browser shows an administrators' page you do not need.
