VPN management

You can manage your VPN policies, policy servers, VPN logs, and key store password in VPN management. VPN policies define

how data is encrypted for transfer over unsecured networks. The key store password helps protect private keys.
An access point is where your device connects to the network by way of a data call or packet data connection. To use e-mail

and multimedia services or to browse Web pages, you must first define Internet access points for these services. VPN access

points pair VPN policies with Internet access points to create encrypted connections.
