• Pick: dn-tool — dn-tool is a control-plane CLI that enrolls and unenrolls Linux hosts in a defined.net Managed Nebula network. It calls the defined.net REST API to create and delete host records and obtain single-use enrollment codes, then orchestrates the proprietary dnclient daemon — which it downloads and verifies at runtime. It is strictly control plane: it never reimplements Nebula and never replaces dnclient.
