Use the VPN screen to enable and configure VPN client settings. You can configure up to 10 VPN client
rules but only one rule can be used at a time. A VPN client rule has the NR2301 use VPN to connect
through the Internet to a remote private network and let the NR2301's LAN devices also access the
remote private network. Essentially you install VPN clients on the NR2301 instead of on the LAN devices.
