Virtual Private Networks
Virtual Private Networks (VPN’s) are end-to-end, secure, private networks that can be accessed over a public backbone network (like the Internet)
without compromising their privacy. Typically, they maintain their privacy by forming secure (encrypted) "tunnels" directly to the users who access them.
Cingular Connection Manager software automatically recognizes
and associated profiles. Once a supported client is installed,
all you need to do is choose the existing VPN software and profile (or designate another VPN software to use) from the VPN settings window.
