# Create network instance (NI) and initiate deployment
<a name="create-network-instance-ni-and-initiate-deployment"></a>

 CSPs create a new network instance (NI) using the previously ingested NSD and then initiate the deployment process. 

 **Recommendation:** Implement a standardized approach for creating NIs to verify consistency and repeatability across deployments. Leverage AWS TNB's ability to create multiple NIs from a single NSD template to support use cases like private network deployments. 

 **Practical advice:** Monitor the deployment progress and status using the AWS TNB console or APIs. Implement automated triggering of the deployment process as part of the CI/CD pipeline.
