VPN settings
11.1.5 
A mobile virtual private network (mobile VPN or mVPN) provides mobile 
devices with access to network resources and software applications on 
their home network, when they connect via other wireless or wired 
networks. Mobile VPNs are used in environments where workers need to 
keep application sessions open at all times, throughout the working day, 
as the user connects via various wireless networks, encounters gaps in 
coverage, or suspend-and-resumes their devices to preserve battery life. A 
conventional VPN cannot survive such events because the network tunnel 
is disrupted, causing applications to disconnect, time out, fail, or even the 
computing device itself to crash. 
For more information of VPN, please refer to section 6.6 Connecting to 
virtual private networks
