Nokia 7710 manual Editing VPN policy servers

Virtual private networking

When you connect to the VPN policy server address for the first time, the VPN policy server is not trusted, so you must authenticate the VPN policy server. You receive a VPN policy server identity code from administrators.

To verify the identity of the VPN policy server, carefully compare the VPN policy server identity code in the VPN policy server identity code dialog with the code that you receive from administrators, enter the missing characters in Missing chars.:, and tap OK.

Note: If you install VPN policy server settings from a SIS file, you do not have to verify VPN server identity and this view never appears.

To authenticate to the VPN policy server, enter your user name in User name: and password in Password: and tap OK in the VPN policy server authentication dialog.

Administrators tell you the user name and password to enter.

Tip: A policy server user name and password help protect the VPN policy server from unauthorized access.

VPN client enrolls a certificate for subsequent authentication to the VPN policy server and installs VPN policies on the smartphone.

Tip: Enrolling a certificate means sending a certification request to a certification authority and receiving a certificate.

You can now create VPN access points and associate them with applications.

Editing VPN policy servers

In Policy servers, you can view, edit, synchronise, and delete VPN policy servers.

To view or change the settings for a VPN policy server, select the VPN policy server and tap Edit to change:

•Server name: - name for the policy server. Policy servers shows the new name.

•Internet access point: - Internet access point used to connect to this VPN policy server.

If you deleted the access point that is associated with the VPN policy server, Internet access point: shows the text Not selected. If you deleted all access points, VPN management cannot save the settings.

You cannot change Server address: after you install VPN policies from the VPN policy server, because the VPN policy server sends the address to VPN management during the first connection.

To delete a VPN policy server, tap Delete. To save the settings, tap Done.

Tip: To close the view without saving your changes, press Esc key .
