Superadmin Signup
When you start Netmaker for the first time, you will be prompted to create a superadmin account from the UI like below
Input your username and a super memorable but strong password then click on the Sign up button. Once you’ve signed up, you can login to your Netmaker server with the account.
Another user type that exists in netmaker CE is “admin“. A user with admin role has equal capabilities as the superadmin, except the creation of other admins and transfering super-admin priviledges.
Users in Netmaker ProfessionalCopied!
Since v0.25.0, Netmaker Professional offers a more capable user management feature. Server administrators can create different kinds of users (admins, platform users and service users) and group them for easier management.

Users are required to sign in using their assigned credentials. Alternatively, social login options are available.
After successful login you will be shown all the networks and gateways you have given access to, so now you will be able to connect/disconnect/refresh your connection to a gateway. Internet gateways are depicted with a globe icon. An internet gateway can be used to route all your traffic through the gateway, this is useful if you want to access the internet without exposing your public IP address. This behaves like a traditional VPN.
