Company will provide Customer with the configuration information relating to Customer’s Firewall System needed for the third-party to configure its VPN device accordingly. Company makes no representations or warranty of any kind relating to the Extranet VPN and is not responsible for its security or functioning. Company will not manage, monitor, administer, report on, or support the Extranet VPN except as explicitly stated in this section.
