Create a Site

1. Navigate to Sites.
   The Sites screen will display.

2. Select the + button to create a new site.
   A site represents your Prisma SD-WAN edge device. The CREATE NEW SITE screen will display.
3. In the Site Name field, enter a name for the site.
4. In the Location of the cloud service field, select a location that suits your site.
   Check Point’s Network Security as a Service inspects traffic from your branch office to the Internet with a cloud service that resides in one of these locations. So typically you would want to select the location of the cloud service with an option that is closest to the location of your site, in order to achieve the best performance. For some countries, most notably South America or the Middle East, the best choice for Location of the cloud service might be presence of a strong cross-country Internet link.
5. In the Comments field, enter an optional description of the site.

6. Click Next.
7. Choose IPsec – Pre-Shared Key as Tunnel Type.
8. In the External IP field, define the IP address of your branch office site.
   Note that this IP must be static and accessible from the Internet. You can track Check Point’s updates regarding support of other topologies at this User Community thread. Supporting more than 1 external IP address per site will be explained later on.

9. Click Next.
10. In the Internal Subnets page, enter the IP address of your internal networks in the branch office site.
    Check Point’s Network Security as a Service applies its cybersecurity features on any traffic coming from these network addresses.

11. Click Next.

12. Select Finish and Create Site. Check Point might take a few minutes to create the site.
