Virtual private networking To update a VPN policy, select a VPN policy and tap Update. VPN client checks the status of the VPN policy from the VPN policy server. Deleting VPN policies VPN policies are deleted automatically after administrators delete them from the VPN policy server when you update a VPN policy or synchronise the VPN policy server. If you delete a VPN policy in VPN management that still exists on the VPN policy server, the VPN policy is installed again when you synchronise VPN policies from the VPN policy server. To delete a VPN policy, select the VPN policy, and tap Delete. You cannot use a VPN access point if you delete the VPN policy that is associated with it. Managing VPN policy servers In Policy servers, you can install VPN policies from VPN policy servers. When you create a connection to a VPN access point, the smartphone connects to the VPN policy server to automatically update the VPN policy that is associated with the VPN access point. To update all VPN policies, synchronise VPN policy servers with the smartphone. Connecting to VPN policy servers When you install VPN policies from a VPN policy server, you create a trust relationship between the smartphone and the VPN policy server. To create the trust relationship, you must authenticate the VPN policy server and the VPN policy server must authenticate you. After the VPN policy server authenticates you, VPN client generates a private key and enrolls a corresponding certificate for you. The private key and certificate are stored in a key store on the smartphone. The certificate authenticates you to the VPN policy server. Tip: Administrators can deliver to you a SIS file that contains settings that specify a connection to a VPN policy server or you can add the VPN policy server in VPN management. Installing settings from SIS files You can install VPN policy server settings on the VPN policy server from a SIS file. You install the settings on a smartphone in the same way that you install other software. The settings consist of the address and server certificate of the VPN policy server. The server certificate makes the smartphone trust the VPN policy server, so you only need to present a user name and password to prove your identity. 119 Copyright © 2005 Nokia. All rights reserved.
