The action buttons at the top of the VPN Client window vary depending on which tab is forward.

For example, if the Connections tab is forward, the Connect, New, Import, Modify, and Delete buttons control operations for the selected connection entry (see Figure 3-6). If the Certificates tab is forward, the View, Import, Export, Enroll, Verify, and Delete buttons control operations for the selected certifi- cate (Figure 3-7).
