Add a Service Provider Connection Through the
Strata Multitenant Cloud Manager

Learn how to add connections to your Service Provider (SP) Backbone through the
Strata Multitenant Cloud Manager
After you add your Service Provider (SP) Backbone, you can add connections to it. Connections are per region, so for example, you can add multiple connections to support firewalls in different regions. You can also add multiple connections for redundancy and high availability (HA) purposes.
If you are adding a connection for the first time, you are automatically directed to
