both on the same Wi-Fi network. You can view and share videos, photos, music, bookmarks,

ringtones, and even send SMS messages from your PC.

which is available at

samsung.com/kies

(for Windows/Mac).

Virtual Private Networks (VPN)

From your tablet, you can add, set up, and manage virtual private networks (VPNs) that allow

you to connect and access resources inside a secured local network, such as your corporate

network.

Prepare Your Tablet for VPN Connection

Depending on the type of VPN, you may be required to enter your login credentials or install

security certificates before you can connect to your company’s local network. You can get this

information from your network administrator.

To connect to a VPN, you must have Mobile data enabled, or your tablet must be connected to

a Wi-Fi network. For information about setting up and using these connections on your tablet,

see

Mobile networks

and

unauthorized users. Pattern, PIN, or password screen locks provide sufficient security to set up

trusted credential storage.

and touch

> Settings.

2. Touch Lock screen > Screen lock.
