Tethering & portable hotspot
This function allows you to share your phone's mobile data connection via USB or as
a portable Wi-Fi access point (Please refer to section 6.5).
11.1.5
VPN settings
A mobile virtual private network (mobile VPN or mVPN) provides mobile devices
with access to network resources and software applications on their home network,
when they connect via other wireless or wired networks. Mobile VPNs are used in
environments where workers need to keep application sessions open at all times,
throughout the working day, as the user connects via various wireless networks,
encounters gaps in coverage, or suspend-and-resumes their devices to preserve
battery life. A conventional VPN cannot survive such events because the network
tunnel is disrupted, causing applications to disconnect, time out, fail, or even the
computing device itself to crash.
For more information of VPN, please refer to section 6.6 Connecting to virtual
private networks.

Call settings

Use Call settings to configure normal phone call settings and other special features
offered by your carrier. You can also use Call settings to configure the phone so that
it can place outgoing calls only to a fixed set of phone numbers.
11.2.1
Fixed Dialing Numbers
Fixed Dialing Number (FDN) is a service mode of SIM, where outgoing calls are
restricted to a set of phone numbers. These numbers are added to the FDN list.
The most common practical application of FDN is for parents to restrict the phone
numbers to which their children can dial.
For security reasons, you'll be prompted to enable FDN by entering SIM PIN2 which
is usually acquired from your service provider or SIM maker.
