Connect to VPN
Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) are extensions of private networks
that you can access over a public network, such as the Internet,
without compromising security. For example, a large company may
implement a VPN so that employees can connect to the corporate
network from remote locations over the Internet. To connect to a VPN,
you may need special software or settings on your laptop. Please
check with your IT administrator for software or settings needed to
connect to VPN.
The Connection Manager currently supports VPN clients from the
