Connecting to virtual private networks (VPNs)

Virtual private networks (VPNs) allow you to connect to the resources inside a

secured local network, from outside that network. VPNs are commonly deployed by

corporations, schools, and other institutions so that their users can access local

network resources when not on campus, or when connected to a wireless network.

There are numerous systems for securing VPN connections, including some that

rely on secure certificates or other schemes to ensure that only authorized users

can connect. For information about installing secure certificates, see “Working

with secure certificates” on page 81.

To configure VPN access from your tablet, you must obtain the details from your

network administrator.

See “Opening Settings” on page 268.

5 In the screen that opens, follow the instructions from your network

administrator to configure each component of the VPN settings.

6 Touch the Menu button in the top-right of the Application bar and touch
