# How to Provision Vultr CDN Push Zones

Vultr CDN Push Zones allow you to directly upload your content to the CDN, which is then stored on Vultr's edge servers for rapid delivery to users around the world. With 32 global locations available, you can ensure that your content is served quickly and efficiently from the nearest edge server. Additionally, Push Zones support custom domain functionality, enabling you to serve content under your own branded domain while leveraging the performance and scalability of Vultr’s CDN.

Follow this guide to provision Vultr CDN Push Zones on your Vultr account using the Vultr Console, API, or CLI.

    1. Click **Add CDN Push Zone**.
    1. Provide a **Label**.
    1. Optional: Enable features such as **Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS)**, **Gzip**, **Block AI Bots**, and **Block Potentially Malicious Bots**.
    1. Optional: Provide a **Custom Domain** along with its Domain-validated Certificate(SSL/TLS) and Secret Key files.
