title: Install With Netbird
type: docs
prev: /docs
weight: 2
---
Insted of using Tailscale as your VPN options, it is possible to use Netbird istead. Netbird works in a very similar way to Tailscale however it can be completely selfhosted. This means you could run Netbird on a VPS for a few £ per month and have unlimited users accessing Glympse adn any other services you wish to include.
The reasons for doing this are mainly for security purposes. It gives you a couple of options. First you can create a tunnel to your Glympse webUI from a cheap VPS. This hides your IP address and does not require you to open any ports in your firewall. You can also limit the traffic to only entering your Glympse WebUI contianer.
Another option which is even more secure but has an additional cost, is you can require your users be on your tailnet. This would mean that there is zero access to Glympse from the internet, but your users who have the netbird client installed can access Glympse through the netbird VPN.
Connecting your containers to Netbird uses the Netbird sidecar containers. To read more about how this works click [here](https://netbird.io/knowledge-hub).
## Install sidecar container
Adding a sidecar container to your Glympse compose file is pretty simple. first add the Netbird container to the top of your Glympse compose file:
```yaml {filename="compose.yml"}
...
glympse-nb:
image: netbirdio/netbird
container_name: glympse-nb
cap_add:
- net_admin
- sys_module
environment:
- NB_SETUP_KEY=<your netbird key>
- NB_MANAGEMENT_URL=<netbird management url>
hostname: glympse-<machine name>
restart: unless-stopped
...
```
You then need to make a small tweak to your Glympse container's networking settings:
```yaml {filename="compose.yml"}
...
network_mode: service:glympse-nb
...
```
This will tell your Glympse container to route it's traffic through the Netbird Container.

It is possible to use Tailscale as a private vpn proxy between all your Glympse containers. This connect nodes to nodes on other networks.
The reasons for doing this are mainly for security purposes. It gives you a couple of options. First you can create a tunnel to your Glympse webUI from a cheap VPS. This hides your IP address and does not require you to open any ports in your firewall. You can also limit the traffic to only entering your Glympse WebUI contianer.

volumes:

environment:

- TS_STATE_DIR=/var/lib/tailscale

title: Docker system setup on WSL for Windows
type: docs
next: docs/installation/services
next: docs/installation/install_glympse
---
Whilst it is possible to run docker desktop on Windows/MacOS. This may have some potential licensing costs. As such the below script will allow you to install docker and the requirements to run Glympse on Ubuntu on WSL.
Open the windows terminal app and run the following commands.
```powershell
# Install WSL
wsl --install
wsl --set-default-version 2
# Install Ubuntu on WSL
wsl --install -d Ubuntu
```
The following commands need to be run from within the Ubuntu system. You can access this by typing `wsl -d Ubuntu` to enter a cmd prompt.
```bash
#install the prerequisit dependancies
sudo apt install -y apt-transport-https ca-certificates curl software-properties-common
sudo curl -fsSL https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu/gpg | sudo gpg --dearmor -o /usr/share/keyrings/docker-archive-keyring.gpg
sudo echo "deb [arch=$(dpkg --print-architecture) signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/docker-archive-keyring.gpg] https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu $(lsb_release -cs) stable" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/docker.list > /dev/null
curl -fsSL https://nvidia.github.io/libnvidia-container/gpgkey | sudo gpg --dearmor -o /usr/share/keyrings/nvidia-container-toolkit-keyring.gpg \
&& curl -s -L https://nvidia.github.io/libnvidia-container/stable/deb/nvidia-container-toolkit.list | \
sed 's#deb https://#deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/nvidia-container-toolkit-keyring.gpg] https://#g' | \
sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/nvidia-container-toolkit.list
# install docker and docker compose
sudo apt update
sudo apt install -y docker-ce
sudo mkdir -p ~/.docker/cli-plugins/
sudo curl -SL https://github.com/docker/compose/releases/download/v2.3.3/docker-compose-linux-x86_64 -o ~/.docker/cli-plugins/docker-compose
sudo chmod +x ~/.docker/cli-plugins/docker-compose
#Enable the nvidia runtime
sudo apt-get install -y nvidia-container-toolkit nvidia-utils-535-server
sudo nvidia-ctk runtime configure --runtime=docker
sudo systemctl restart docker
#Optional step to allow you to run docker commands without root or sudo access
sudo usermod -aG docker ${USER}
su - ${USER}
```
You can check that your Nvidia GPU is working in WSL by typing `nvidia-smi`.
You are now ready to install Glympse
