Hi friends,
Here are the steps for how to configure a virtual private network (VPN) connection to your corporate network in Microsoft Windows XP Professional. A VPN connection is a connection that uses both private and public networks to create a network connection.
Both Point-to-Point Tunneling protocol (PPTP) or Layer Two Tunneling Protocol (L2TP) are automatically installed on your Windows XP-based computer. These protocols help provide security when you access resources on a network by connecting to a remote access server through the Internet or other network. This kind of connection is known as a VPN connection.
- On the computer that is running Windows XP, confirm that the connection to the Internet is correctly configured.
- Click Start, and then click Control Panel.
- In Control Panel, double click Network Connections.
- Click Create a new connection in the Network Tasks task pad.
