Connect to a VPN Network

A virtual private network (VPN) is a temporary connection that extends a private network across a public network, encrypting data transmission to provide security.

When working outside the office, you can use a VPN to securely access your company's Intranet.

The following types of servers are supported:

  • PPTP: It stands for Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol, offering MPPE encryption.
  • L2TP: It stands for Layer 2 (Data Link Layer) Tunneling Protocol, offering IPSec PSK and IPSec RSA encryption.
  • IPSec Xauth: Offering PSK, RSA, and Hybrid RSA encryption.

Connect to a PPTP Server

  1. Obtain the required data such as the VPN server name and address from your VPN server administrator.

  2. Go to Settings > More connections > VPN > Add VPN network, enter the VPN name, set the server type to PPTP, then enter the server address.

  3. If the VPN server does not have a DNS address, touch Show advanced options and enter the DNS domain, DNS server address, and forwarding route.

  4. Touch Save.

  5. Touch the VPN you have just set up, enter your VPN user name and password, then touch Connect.

Connect to an L2TP/IPSec PSK Server

  1. Obtain the VPN server name, server address, L2TP key (optional), IPsec identifier (optional), and IPsec pre-shared key from your VPN server administrator.

  2. Go to Settings > More connections > VPN > Add VPN network, enter the VPN name, set the server type to L2TP/IPSec PSK, then enter the server address, L2TP key, IPSec identifier, and IPSec pre-shared key.

  3. If the VPN server does not have a DNS address, touch Show advanced options and enter the DNS domain, DNS server address, and forwarding route.

  4. Touch Save.

  5. Touch the VPN you have just set up, enter your VPN user name and password, then touch Connect.
