# Tutorial: Deploy a Connector on a Kamatera Virtual Private Server (VPS)

A Connector deployed on a Virtual Private Server (VPS) can connect a Kamatera VPC to CloudConnexa or be used as a standalone Internet Gateway if it has a public IP address. The internet traffic routed by that Connector will appear to have originated from the VPS's assigned public IP address because the Connector installation script turns ON routing and Network Address Translation (NAT) by default.

To use a Kamatera VPS as a Connector in a **New** Network, follow the steps below:

1. Navigate to **Networks \> Networks**.
2. Click **Add Network**.
3. Choose all the applicable scenarios and click **Continue**.
4. Provide a **Name** and, optionally, a **Description** for the Network.
5. In the **Add Connector** section, provide a **Name** and, optionally, a **Description** for the Connector.
6. Select a **Region** from the drop-down closest to the Kamatera data center where the VPS will be deployed and click **Next**.
7. When you select **Kamatera** from the **Provider Type** drop-down, you will see two steps:
   1. The **Sign Up** step contains a link to sign up on Kamatera if you do not have an account.
   2. The **Create a Server** step provides the script to copy into the **Install Script** field under Advanced Configuration when creating the VPS.
8. Once the VPS created with the provided script is up and running, click **Next**.

To add a Kamatera VPS as a Connector in an **Existing** Network, follow the steps below:

1. Navigate to **Networks \> Connectors**.
2. Click **Add Connector**.
3. Provide a **Name** and a **Description** for the Connector optionally.
4. Select a **Region** from the drop-down closest to the Kamatera data center where the VPS will be deployed.
5. Select the prior configured network from the **Network** drop-down and click **Add Connector**.
6. The new Connector will appear in the list. For the new Connector, click **Deploy** and select **Deploy Connector**.
7. When you select **Kamatera** from the **Provider Type** drop-down, you will see two steps:
   1. The **Sign Up** step contains a link to sign up on Kamatera if you do not have an account.
   2. The **Create a Server** step provides the script that needs to be copied into the **Install Script** field under **Advanced Configuration** while creating the server.
8. Once the VPS created with the provided script is up and running, click **Next**.
