Connecting to a virtual private network (VPN)

Add, set up, and manage virtual private networks (VPNs) so you can
connect and access resources inside a secured local network, such as
your corporate network.
Depending on the type of VPN you're using at work, you may be
asked to enter your login credentials and install security certificates
before you can connect to your company's local network. You can get
this information from your network administrator.
Also, your phone must first establish a Wi-Fi or data connection
before you can start a VPN connection. For information about setting
up and using these connections on your phone, see "Data connection"
and "Wi-Fi" in this chapter.

Setting up secure credential storage

If your network administrator tells you to download and install security
certificates, you must first set up the phone's secure credential
storage.
1. From the main Home screen, press MENU , and then tap
Settings.
2.
Tap Security > Set password.
3. Enter a new password for the credential storage.
4. Scroll down and confirm the password, and then tap OK.
5.
Select the Use secure credentials check box.
You can then download and install the certificates needed to access
your local network. Your network administrator can tell you how to do
this.
