In these cases, you can configure network routes assigning routing peers to connect existing infrastructure. Routing peers will forward packets between your NetBird peers and your other networks; they can masquerade traffic going to your data centers or embedded devices, reducing the need for external route configuration and agent installation.

In the example above, we are creating a route with the following information:
Once you are done filling the route information, you can click on the `create` button to save your new route.
- Network identifier: `aws-eu-central-1-vpc`
- Description: `Production VPC in Frankfurt`
- Network range: `172.31.0.0/16`
- Routing peer: `aws-nb-europe-router-az-a`

### Creating highly available routes
Creating highly available routes requires the same steps as creating a single route. The only difference is that you must copy the same network identifier and network range from another route.
So if we would like to enable high availability for the route created in the previous step, we would copy most of the information and assign the new route to a different peer:
- Network identifier: `aws-eu-central-1-vpc`
- Description: `Production VPC in Frankfurt`
- Network range: `172.31.0.0/16`
- Routing peer: `aws-nb-europe-router-az-b`

</p>
This way, nodes connected to both peer `aws-nb-europe-router-az-a` and peer `aws-nb-europe-router-az-b` would have a highly available connection with the network `172.31.0.0/16`.

:::info
Currently, there is no limitation in the number of routes that form a highly available route. Each connected peer will pick one routing peer to use as the router for a network; this decision is based on metric prioritization and connection attributes like direct or relayed connections.
