Part 2: Set up the VPN client
Although there only needs to be one VPN tunnel server, you can have as
many clients as you like (that is, until you reach the limit specified in the
tunnel server??™s configuration). Here??™s how to connect a Windows Vista PC
to an existing VPN network:
1. Open the Network and Sharing Center, and click the Set up a connection
or network link on the left.
2. Select Connect to a workplace (you may have to scroll through the list
to see it), and then click Next.
3. Click Use my Internet connection (VPN).
4. In the Internet address field, type the IP address (157.54.0.1) or the
host name (sally.mydomain.net).
5. Next, choose a name for the new connection (it can be anything you
want), type it into the Destination name field, and click Next.
6. On the next page, type your user name and password on the tunnel
server; this is either the login for a valid Windows user account on that
PC, or a login provided by the tunnel server??™s administrator (if it??™s not
you).
7. Turn on the Remember this password option, and click Connect (or
Create, if you opted not to connect on the last page).
