I'm not quite sure what you are asking but I run the Netbird management containers on a server and also run a native Netbird client alongside them (not in docker) to have the server itself also perform as a peer. Is that what you are looking to do above?

Yes, but I also want to run the client in a container and the docs recommend to run the container using network_mode: host. And I suspect this creates a conflict in networks. So I want to have Netbird server, Netbird client and Nginx Proxy Manager all in containers share the same network.
