# Link a Redis cluster to a dedicated server
:::info
Some dedicated server configurations in the [Chipcore Line](/dedicated/order/dedicated-configurations.mdx#prebuilt-servers) cannot be added to a global router network because they do not have a port for connecting to a private network. You can check for a private network port in the [Control panel](https://my.selectel.ru/servers/servers/) on the server page under the **Ports**.
:::
1. [Create a global router](#create-global-router).
2. [Connect a network and subnet to the global router up to the dedicated server VLAN](#connect-network-and-subnet-to-router-up-to-dedicated-server-vlan).
3. [Connect a network and subnet to the global router up to the Cloud Platform project](#connect-network-and-subnet-to-router-up-to-cloud-platform-project).
4. [Assign IP addresses from the created subnets to the dedicated server](#assign-ip-to-dedicated-server).
5. [Specify routes on the dedicated server](#write-routes-on-dedicated-server).
6. [Create a Managed Database cluster](#create-managed-database-cluster): new or from a backup of an existing Managed Database cluster.
See an [example of creating network connectivity](#example-of-network-organization-between-managed-database-and-dedicated-server) between a dedicated server and a Managed Database.
## Example of network organization between a Managed Database and a dedicated server \{#example-of-network-organization-between-managed-database-and-dedicated-server}
If you need to configure private connectivity between a dedicated server in the SPB-2 pool and a new Managed Database in the ru-2 pool:
1. Create a global router.
2. Connect two private subnets to the router — `192.168.0.0/29` with a gateway of `192.168.0.1` for the SPB-2 pool and `172.16.0.0/29` with a gateway of `172.16.0.1` for the ru-2 pool.
3. Assign an address from the `192.168.0.0/29` subnet to the dedicated server, for example, `192.168.0.2`.
4. Specify routes on the dedicated server in the SPB-2 pool — to the subnet `172.16.0.0/29` through gateway `192.168.0.1`.
5. Create a new Managed Database cluster on subnet `172.16.0.0/29`.
## 1. Create a global router \{#create-global-router}
## 2. Connect a network and subnet to the global router to the dedicated server VLAN \{#connect-network-and-subnet-to-router-up-to-dedicated-server-vlan}
## 3. Connect a network and subnet to the global router to the Cloud Platform project \{#connect-network-and-subnet-to-router-up-to-cloud-platform-project}
## 4. Assign an IP address to the dedicated server \{#assign-ip-to-dedicated-server}
Configure the local port on the dedicated server that is connected to the global router network. Assign an IP address to the port from the private subnet that you [connected to the global router in step 2](#connect-network-and-subnet-to-router-up-to-dedicated-server-vlan).
## 5. Specify a route on the dedicated server \{#write-routes-on-dedicated-server}
You must configure a static route on the server to the Cloud Platform subnet that you [connected to the global router in step 3](#connect-network-and-subnet-to-router-up-to-cloud-platform-project).
## 6. Create a Managed Database cluster \{#create-managed-database-cluster}
New
1. In the [Control panel](https://my.selectel.ru/vpc/default/dbaas/), on the top menu, click **Products** and select **Managed Databases**.
2. Click **Create cluster**.
3. Enter the cluster name.
4. Select a [location](/infrastructure/locations.mdx). You cannot change the location after creation.
5. Select a DBMS — Redis.
6. Select the [Redis version](/managed-databases/redis/configurations.mdx#versions). You cannot change the version after creation.
7. Select a [configuration line](/managed-databases/redis/configurations.mdx#configuration-lines) and configuration.
8. Optional: to configure cluster high availability, in the **High availability** block, specify the number of nodes in the cluster. The first node is the master node, and the others are replicas. For a multi-node cluster, [SLA](https://files.selectel.ru/docs/ru/conditions-cloud-platform.pdf) applies — we guarantee 99.95% write availability and 99.99% read availability.
9. Select an [eviction policy](/managed-databases/redis/eviction-policy.mdx).
10. Enter the user password or click **Generate**. The password must contain:
* 32 to 64 characters;
* uppercase and lowercase Latin letters;
* digits;
* special characters.
11. Copy and save the user password — you need it to [connect to the cluster](/managed-databases/redis/connect-to-cluster.mdx). The password cannot be viewed in the Control panel, but it can be [changed](/managed-databases/redis/change-password.mdx).
12. Select the subnet that you [connected to the global router in step 3](#connect-network-and-subnet-to-router-up-to-cloud-platform-project).
You can [limit the list of addresses](/managed-databases/redis/network-access-control.mdx) from which access to the database cluster is allowed.
13. Check the cluster price.
14. Click **Create cluster**. The cluster will be ready for use when it switches to the `ACTIVE`.
From backup
1. In the [Control panel](https://my.selectel.ru/vpc/default/dbaas/), on the top menu, click **Products** and select **Managed Databases**.
2. Click **Create cluster**.
3. Select a [location](/infrastructure/locations.mdx) that hosts your existing Managed Database cluster.
4. Select the **Restore cluster from backup** checkbox.
5. Select an existing Managed Database cluster.
6. Choose how to restore the cluster — from the latest available backup or to a specific point in time within the last 7 days.
7. Click **Continue**.
8. Select a [configuration line](/managed-databases/redis/configurations.mdx#configuration-lines) and configuration.
9. Optional: select the **Add replicas** checkbox and specify the number of replicas. Replicas improve cluster high availability.
10. Select an [eviction policy](/managed-databases/redis/eviction-policy.mdx).
11. Select the subnet that you [connected to the global router in step 3](#connect-network-and-subnet-to-router-up-to-cloud-platform-project).
You can [limit the list of addresses](/managed-databases/redis/network-access-control.mdx) from which access to the database cluster is allowed.
12. Click **Create cluster**.
13. After the cluster is restored, the node addresses will change — update them in your application.
