When you connect to the VPN policy server address for
the first time, the smartphone does not trust the VPN
policy server, so you must authenticate the VPN policy
server. You receive a VPN policy server identity code from
administrators. You check and complete the VPN policy
server identity code and VPN client verifies it.
After successful authentication, VPN client enrolls a
certificate from the VPN policy server for subsequent
authentication to the VPN policy server.
To add a VPN policy server, tap New. Enter the
following settings:
• Policy server name — you can choose any name, but it
must be unique in VPN policy servers.
If you leave this field empty, Policy server address: is
inserted in this field.
The policy server name appears in the VPN policy
server list.
• Policy server address: — host name or IP address of the
VPN policy server to install VPN policies from. You can
also specify a port number, separated with a colon (:).
You receive the policy server address from
administrators.
• Internet access point: — Internet access point used to
connect to this VPN policy server.
Administrators tell you which access point to select.
To install VPN policies from the VPN policy server,
tap Yes when VPN management prompts you to sychronise
the VPN policy server.
Tip: Synchronising means that VPN client connects to
a VPN policy server to check for new, updated, or
removed VPN policies and installs the VPN policies on
the smartphone.
When you connect to the VPN policy server address for the
first time, the VPN policy server is not trusted, so you must
authenticate the VPN policy server. You receive a VPN
policy server identity code from administrators.
To verify the identity of the VPN policy server,
carefully compare the VPN policy server identity code in
the VPN policy server identity code dialog with the code that
you receive from administrators, enter the missing
characters in Missing chars.:, and tap OK.
Note: If you install VPN policy server settings from a
SIS file, you do not have to verify VPN server identity
and this view never appears.
To authenticate to the VPN policy server, enter your
user name in Serv. user name: and password in Server
password: and tap OK in the VPN policy server authentication
dialog.
Administrators tell you the user name and password to
enter.
Tip: A policy server user name and password help
protect the VPN policy server from unauthorized
access.
