Settings > Settings > Connection > VPN.

The Nokia mobile virtual private network (VPN) client creates

a secure connection to compatible corporate intranets and

services, such as e-mail. Your device connects from a mobile

network, through the internet, to a corporate VPN gateway

that acts as a front door to the compatible corporate network.

The VPN client uses IP Security (IPSec) technology. IPSec is a

framework of open standards for supporting the secure

exchange of data over IP networks.
VPN policies define the method used by the VPN client and a

VPN gateway to authenticate each other, and the encryption

algorithms that they use to help protect the confidentiality

of data.
To install and configure the VPN client, certificates, and

policies, contact your company's IT department. After

installing a policy, a VPN connection method is automatically

created into Intranet Network destination.
To view your VPN policy installations, updates and

synchronisations, and other VPN connections, select VPN >

VPN log.
