Installing VPN client
You receive VPN client as a standard SIS file. You install
VPN client on a device in the same way that you install
other software. For more information about how to install
software on a device, see the documentation of the device.
You do not need the VPN client SIS file after the
installation. Delete the SIS file to release memory.

System requirements

You can install VPN client on a memory card or on device
memory. The memory card must be in the device for VPN
client to work.
During the installation of VPN client, you need at least 1.5
MB of memory in the device.
After the installation, VPN client reserves 900 K of
memory on the device or on a memory card. Each VPN
policy typically requires from 1 K to 16 K of memory on
the device.
Managing VPN policies
VPN policies define the method that VPN client and a VPN
gateway use to authenticate each other and the
encryption algorithms that they use to help protect the
confidentiality of the data. Administrators create VPN
policies and store them on VPN policy servers or deliver
them to you as SIS files. You install VPN policies from a
VPN policy server in VPN management.

Installing VPN policies from VPN

policy servers

In VPN management, you can install VPN policies from a
VPN policy server.
Tip! VPN policy servers are servers on the
enterprise network that contain VPN policies.
To install VPN policies
1Go to Tools > Control panel > Connections > VPN
management.
2Press Yes when VPN management prompts you to
install VPN policies.
3Press Yes again to add VPN policy servers.
