Virtual private networks (VPNs)

Use your device to connect to virtual private networks (VPNs), which allow you to access resources inside a secured local network from outside the actual network. For example, VPN connections are commonly used by corporations and educational institutions for users who need to access intranets and other internal services when they are outside of the internal network, for example, when they are travelling.

VPN connections can be set up in many ways, depending on the network. Some networks may require you to transfer and install a security certificate in your device. For detailed information on how to set up a connection to your virtual private network, please contact the network administrator of your company or organisation.

Sharing content with DLNA Certified™ devices

You can view or play media content saved to your device on other devices such as, for example, a TV, or a computer. Such devices must be DLNA Certified™ by the Digital Living Network Alliance and all devices must be connected to the same Wi- Fi® network in order for content to be shared. You can also view or play content from other DLNA Certified™ devices on your device.

After you set up the sharing of content between devices, you can, for example, listen to music files stored on your home computer from your device, or view photos taken with your device's camera on a large-screen TV.

Playing files from DLNA Certified™ devices on your device

When you play files from another DLNA Certified™ device on your device, this other device acts as a server. In other words, it shares content over a network. The server device must have its content sharing function enabled and give access permission to your device. It also must be connected to the same Wi-Fi® network as your device.

To play a shared track on your device

1Make sure the devices that you want to share files with are connected to the same Wi-Fi® network as your device.

2From your Home screen, tap , then find and tap WALKMAN.

3Tap My music to open the music library.

4Select a device from the list of connected devices.

5Browse the folders of the connected device and select the track that you want to play. The track starts playing automatically.
