The VPN client in the SpeedTouch™ can replace a software VPN client installed on a
computer. You can use it for example to connect from your home to your employer's
corporate network for tele-working. The VPN Client page allows you to configure a
VPN client that functions in Initiator mode. This means that the VPN client takes the
initiative to set up a secure connection to a remote VPN server.
Perform the following steps to configure your VPN client:
Select VPN > VPN Client.

Fill out the various parameter fields in the VPN Client web page.
