Netmaker v1.5.0 Release Notes 🚀

Time-limited, on-demand network access: users request access, admins approve or deny, and grants expire automatically.
Request/approval workflow with configurable grant duration; admins retain full control over who accesses which networks and when.

Virtual NAT mode enables multiple egress routers to share overlapping IP ranges by assigning each egress a virtual range from a configurable pool.
Configurable per-network IPv4 pool and site prefix length for virtual range allocation.
Eliminates routing conflicts when multiple sites need to egress the same destination CIDRs (e.g., multiple offices routing to the same cloud VPC).
Supports both direct NAT and virtual NAT modes for flexible egress configurations.

Desktop App connections automatically fail over to healthy gateway hubs when the primary becomes unavailable.
Gateway health is monitored via connectivity checks and last-seen metrics; only online gateways are used for new connections.

IP Detection Interval User can now choose the Device Endpoint IP detection interval based on their requirements.
User Migration: Optimized user migration logic to reduce server startup time.
DNS: Use Global Nameservers only if no match-all nameservers are configured, added fallback nameserver configuration.
Darwin: Netclients on macOS can now use internet gateway.
GeoLocation: Consolidate IP location API usage with fallbacks

netclients cannot auto-upgrade on ipv6-only machines.
Need to optimize multi-network netclient join with enrollment key
On systems using systemd-resolved in uplink mode, the first 3 entries in resolv.conf are used and rest are ignored. So it might cause DNS issues. Stub mode is preferred.
When a Windows desktop app is connected to a Full Tunnel Gateway, and a Split Tunnel Gateway at the same time,
the gateway monitoring component would disconnect from the split tunnel gateway.
