Configuring a VPN Connection
Follow these steps to configure a VPN connection:
1. Consult the administrator of the VPN you wish to access. The administrator will provide you with VPN client software and instructions for
establishing VPN connections using that software.

Windows).
3. Open the Cingular Connection Manager.
4. Access the VPN settings tab by selecting the Settings… option from the Tools drop down menu and then clicking the V PN tab.
5. If the VPN client software you are using is supported by the Cingular Connection Manager, select Use ex isting V PN profile . Supported software
installed on your system will be automatically detected. Just select the client software that you want to use from the Client menu and then select
the profile that you want to use from the Profile menu.
If the VPN client software you are using is NOT supported by the Cingular Connection Manager, select Use third party V PN c lient . Then, click
the Brow se button to specify the location of the client software that you are using.
6. Click OK to exit the Settings window.
Once your VPN settings are configured, there are two ways to start your VPN connection.
 Automatically start your VPN upon connection by configuring your connection profile to do so.
 One click manual launch of the VPN by pressing the “VPN” button on the main interface.
