VPN connections

You can create virtual private networks (VPN) and connect to your private network securely through a public network, such as the internet.

Before you add a VPN, you must determine which VPN protocol to use. The following protocols are available: PPTP (Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol), L2TP (Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol), L2TP/IPSec PSK (Pre-shared key based L2TP/IPSec), and L2TP/IPSec CRT (Certificate based L2TP/IPSec)

Your device should already be configured with internet access. If you have trouble accessing the internet, you need to edit connections. If you are not sure about the connection information to enter, ask your service provider.
