How to Use Guide: VZAccess Manager - General Preferences

VPN Tab

The following options exist on the VPN tab ("Tools" > "Preferences" > "Wi-Fi" tab > select "Add" OR a network in the "Preferred Network" list and "Edit" > "VPN"):

  1. VPN Client: VZAccess Manager automatically detects if certain VPN clients like Microsoft, Cisco, CheckPoint, etc are installed on the computer and allows you to select the one you wish to use. Check with your network administrator to setup your VPN connection.
  2. If the VPN client you wish to use does not appear in the list, you can select "Other VPN Application".
  3. Other VPN Application: This allows automatically running any VPN program when you use VZAccess Manager to connect to the Wi-Fi network you added or edited. Select the "Browse" button to browse to the desired VPN application you want to run when you connect to the Wi-Fi network you added or edited, using VZAccess Manager. If you have a shortcut you normally use to launch your VPN application you may want to right click on it and select "Properties" to see where the program is located and how it's named.

Option Tab

The last tab in Preferences that has Wi-Fi specific settings is the Options tab ("Options" > "Preferences" > "Options"):
  1. Only show preferred wireless networks at start up: This only applies to Wi-Fi networks. If checked at startup, only networks in your Preferred list on the Wi-Fi tab are displayed (networks you have connected to in the past) otherwise, all detected networks are displayed. You also have the option in the main screen of VZAccess Manager of selecting "Show All Networks" when only preferred networks are displayed and you have the option to select "Show Preferred" networks when VZAccess Manager is set to show all detected networks.
  2. Display advanced Wi-Fi network information: This only applies to Wi-Fi networks. If checked, additional information will be displayed for Wi-Fi networks such as the channel, MAC address and type of security.
