The private RPNv1 network is connected to the second physical interface of your Dedibox. It is connected to a totally secure network, different from the one you use to connect to the internet.

<Requirements />

- A Dedibox account logged into the [console](https://console.online.net)
- A [Dedibox dedicated server](https://www.scaleway.com/en/dedibox/) with RPNv1 connectivity

## How to create a new RPNv1 group from the Scaleway console

1. Click **RPN** > **RPN groups** in the navigation bar on top of your console to enter the [RPN groups configuration](http://console.online.net/en/server/rpn) page.
2. Click **Create group** to create a new RPN group. The group creation interface displays.
3. Enter a name for your RPN group, select the Dedibox servers you want to add to the group, and save.

    It takes about five to ten minutes to activate a new RPNv1 group. Once the group is enabled, its status changes to **active**.

## How to update or modify an RPNv1 group

1. Click **RPN** > **RPN groups** in the navigation bar on top of your console to enter the [RPN groups configuration](http://console.online.net/en/server/rpn) page.

  The owner of the server external to your account receives an email to confirm the sharing of the RPN group. You can not reach any external server until the RPN sharing has been confirmed by the server owner.
