Connect to virtual private networks

Virtual private networks (VPNs) allow you to connect to the re-
sources inside a secured local network, from outside that net-
work. VPNs are commonly deployed by corporations, schools,
and other institutions to let people access local network re-
sources when not on campus, or when connected to a wireless
network.

To configure VPN access, you must first obtain the details from
your network administrator. depending on your organization’s so-
lution, you may need to obtain a VPN app, either from your admin-
istrator or on Google Play.

The VPN settings screen allows you to add VPN net-
works and adjust their settings. To view this screen
and perform the tasks described here, go to Set-
tings > Wireless & networks > More > VPn.
