Installing VPN policies from SIS files

Administrators can deliver VPN policies to you as SIS files. If you install VPN policies from SIS files, you do not have to define connections to VPN policy servers. After you install VPN policies, you can create VPN access points and associate them to applications.

If the VPN policies contain private keys and corresponding certificates, administrators define key import passwords to help protect the private keys. Administrators should use a secure method to deliver the key import password to you.

Tip: A key import password helps protect the private keys in a VPN policy file.

To install VPN policies from SIS files, write the key import password in Key import pass.: and tap OK. Then write the key store password in Key store password and tap OK.
