<title>Connect to a VPN</title>

A VPN (or Virtual Private Network) is a way of connecting to a
 local network over the internet. For example, say you want to connect to the
 local network at your workplace while you’re on a business trip. You would
 find an internet connection somewhere (like at a hotel) and then connect to
 your workplace’s VPN. It would be as if you were directly connected to the
 network at work, but the actual network connection would be through the
 hotel’s internet connection. VPN connections are usually encrypted
 to prevent people from accessing the local network you’re connecting to
 without logging in.

There are a number of different types of VPN. You may have to install some
 extra software depending on what type of VPN you’re connecting to. Find out
 the connection details from whoever is in charge of the VPN and see which
 VPN client you need to use. Then, go to the software installer
 application and search for the <app>NetworkManager</app> package which works
 with your VPN (if there is one) and install it.

<note>
 If there isn’t a NetworkManager package for your type of VPN, you will
 probably have to download and install some client software from the company
 that provides the VPN software. You’ll probably have to follow some different
 instructions to get that working.
</note>

 the <gui>Network</gui> panel that you used to create the connection.
