# General administration

This section provides a detailed understanding of the deployment and configuration of the AppGate ZTNA system. This section is not intended to detail how to use the admin UI or provide specific values to use in a given field. For this you should follow the links like the one below which appear near the beginning of many topics. These take you to the admin UI section which contains help relating to the specific forms where you configure that feature or function. There are, however, a number of step-by-step guides included in this section that detail how to solve a specific use case or troubleshoot the system.

Go to the [admin UI](/v1/docs/admin-ui-v6-7) sections to manage the AppGate ZTNA system.

## Contents

There are three principal phases you will encounter when setting up a new system:

- [**Managing appliances**](/v1/docs/managing-appliances-v6-7) covers details of system requirements and the configuration required to provision and maintain appliances where they are needed.
- [**System Configuration**](/v1/docs/system-configuration-v6-7) includes details such as networking and points of integration required to ready the AppGate ZTNA so you can start configuring access controls.
- [**Access management**](/v1/docs/access-management-v6-7) includes all aspects of setting up, testing, and troubleshooting user, device, and admin access.
