# How to add new ZTNA connections (Edge Routers)

{% hint style="info" %}

* Only users with the connectivity-manager role create new ZTNA connections. Check out all the ZTNA roles and permissions at the [documentation](/documentation/developer-guide/platform-administration/administration/new-access-control/access-control-roles/list-of-permissions-by-service.md).
* This functionality is only available for realms that already have edge routers/connections configured.
  {% endhint %}

You can set up new ZTNA connections (Edge Routers) in the Connectivity module of the Digibee Integration Platform, giving you more control over your network

1. Click on **Connectivity** in the upper right corner on the Platform home page.
2. The page opens in the **Edge Router** tab.
3. Click on the **Add Edge Router** button. A new modal will open on the screen.
4. The tab for a new connection contains the following input fields:

* **Name**: Choose a name for your new connection. 
* **Group:** Create a group name to which you want to associate your Edge Router. If you have already created a group, select the desired group to include this new Edge Router.

5. Click in **Create** to continue or **Cancel** to return to the previous screen. 
6. A new tab opens on the screen with a key for your new connection. Copy the key and register it in your Edge Router. You have 48 hours before the key expires.

### Naming an Edge Router group

For naming Edge Router groups, use lowercase letters and avoid spaces. You can use underscores to separate words. For example: `prod_gcp`.

You can’t edit an existing group. You can create a new group name or associate a new Edge Router to an existing group.
