About VPN profiles

A VPN profile contains the information that you require to log in to a VPN. If your organization uses a VPN to control access to its network,
you might be able to log in to the VPN and access your organization's network using a Wi-Fi® network. Depending on your organization, you
might have more than one VPN profile on your BlackBerry® device. For more information about VPN profiles, contact your administrator.

Prerequisites: Logging in to a VPN

Your BlackBerry® device must be associated with an email account that uses a BlackBerry® Enterprise Server that supports this feature.
For more information, contact your administrator.

The Wi-Fi® network that your device is connected to must support connections to a VPN. For more information, contact your administrator.

If you use a software token to log in to a VPN, the software token must be on your device and the software token information that appears
in the VPN profile must be correct.
