Connecting to a virtual private network
If you want to use your Treo smartphone to access your corporate email
account or other files on your corporate server, you may need to set up
a virtual private network (VPN) on your smartphone. A VPN enables you
to log in to your corporate server through the company’s firewall
(security layer). You need a VPN client on your smartphone if your
smartphone and your company’s server are located on opposite sides
of the firewall.
Check with your company’s system administrator to see if a VPN is
required to access the corporate server. If a VPN is necessary, you must
purchase and install a third-party VPN client on your smartphone to use
this feature.
