Connecting to virtual private networks (VPNs)
Virtual private networks (VPNs) allow you to connect to the resources inside a secured local network, from outside that
network. VPNs are commonly deployed by corporations, schools, and other institutions so that their users can access
local network resources when not on campus, or when connected to a wireless network.
There are numerous systems for securing VPN connections, including some that rely on secure certificates or other
schemes to ensure that only authorized users can connect. For information about installing secure certificates,
see “Working with secure certificates” on page 69.
To configure VPN access from your tablet, you must obtain the details from your network administrator.
