Connecting to a VPN If you want to use your smartphone to access your corporate email account or other files on your corporate server, you may need to set up a VPN (virtual private network). A VPN enables you to log in to your corporate server through the company's firewall (security layer). You need to set up a VPN to access a corporate server in either of the following situations: • Your company's wireless local area network (LAN) is outside the firewall. • Your company's wireless LAN is inside the firewall, but you are accessing the network from outside the firewall (for example, from a public location or at home). Check with your company's system administrator to see if a VPN is required to access the corporate network. If you need a VPN, you must purchase and install a third-party VPN client to use this feature. TIP Some VPN servers require that you install specific VPN software (sold separately) on your smartphone. For more information go to www.palm.com/mytreo700wxVerizon. Before you begin setting up a VPN, ask your system administrator for the following information: • Your username and password • Your server's domain name • Your server's TCP/IP settings • Your server's host name or IP address C O N N E C T I O N S E T T I N G S 215
