# Deploy an Edge Transit Gateway on Equinix Network Edge

> This document provides instructions to deploy a primary Edge Transit Gateways on Equinix Network Edge.

This document provides instructions to deploy a primary Edge Transit Gateways on
Equinix Network Edge.

For an overview of Aviatrix Edge, see <a href={"/docs/enterprise/" +

"/concepts-architectures/components/edge-gateways/edge-overview"}>About Aviatrix
Hybrid Cloud Edge</a>.

## Topology

The following diagram shows an example of network connectivity for Edge Transit
Gateway to Transit Gateways in the cloud and Edge Spoke Gateway at remote site.

## Prerequisites

Before you deploy an Edge Transit Gateway on the Equinix platform, ensure the <a href={"/docs/enterprise/" + "10.1" +
"/reference/gateways/edge/edge-spoke-transit-planning#equinix"}>prerequisite
steps</a> are complete.

## Deploy the Primary Edge Transit Gateway (Equinix)

To deploy an Edge Transit Gateway, first you need to generate the cloud-init
file in CoPilot, then deploy the Edge gateway in Equinix using the cloud-init
file:

1. [Create the Primary Edge Transit Gateway cloud-init ZTP file](https://legacy.docs.aviatrix.com/documentation/latest/network/edge-transit-create-equinix.html).
2. [Deploy the Edge Transit Gateway in Equinix using the cloud-init ZTP file](https://legacy.docs.aviatrix.com/documentation/latest/network/edge-vm-create-equinix.html).
3. [Verify the Edge Transit Gateway creation](https://legacy.docs.aviatrix.com/documentation/latest/network/edge-gateway-verify.html).

## Next Steps

* For high availability (HA) and redundancy, you can create and deploy HA Edge
  Transit Gateway. See
  [Deploy a HA Edge Transit Gateway (Equinix)](https://legacy.docs.aviatrix.com/documentation/latest/network/edge-transit-ha-create-equinix.html).

* For hybrid, multicloud, or LAN-side connectivity, you can attach the Edge
  Transit Gateway to multiple Aviatrix gateways. See <a href={"/docs/enterprise/" + "10.1" +
  "/guides/connectivity/gateways/edge-gateway-attachments"}>Edge Gateway
  Attachments</a>.

* For remote site connectivity, you can connect the Edge Transit Gateway to
  remote devices. See <a href={"/docs/enterprise/" + "10.1" +
  "/guides/connectivity/gateways/edge-s2c"}>Edge Gateway External Connection</a>.
