Learn about the Editor and infrastructure building

Create, edit, and work with your infrastructure through the Grid Gateway interface using the Editor.

To create your infrastructure, you drag and drop icons that represent infrastructure elements from the palette to the design area, where you position, connect, and configure them to support your needs.

After the infrastructure design is submitted and validated, the provisioning and wiring to support your design takes place behind the scenes, and your validated design is implemented.

Note: User session time-out occurs after 30 minutes of inactivity in the Gateway. The user must log back in again, and any unsaved changes are lost.

Grid Operations reviews the infrastructure design (pending), and keeps you informed by email.
Make modifications/editing to your design if needed.
Grid Operations validates the design (pending).
