# Collect the required information for a site

Azure Private 5G Core Preview private mobile networks include one or more sites. Each site represents a physical enterprise location (for example, Contoso Corporation's Chicago factory) containing an Azure Stack Edge device that hosts a packet core instance. This how-to guide takes you through the process of collecting the information you'll need to create a new site. You'll use this information to complete the steps in [Create a site](create-a-site.md).

You can use this information to create a site in an existing private mobile network using the [Azure portal](create-a-site.md). You can also use it as part of an ARM template to [deploy a new private mobile network and site](deploy-private-mobile-network-with-site-arm-template.md), or [add a new site to an existing private mobile network](create-site-arm-template.md).

|Whether Network Address and Port Translation (NAPT) should be enabled for this data network. NAPT allows you to translate a large pool of private IP addresses for UEs to a small number of public IP addresses. The translation is performed at the point where traffic enters the core network, maximizing the utility of a limited supply of public IP addresses. |**NAPT**|
