In-Depth Information
You can configure a VPN on the iPad by following these steps:
1. Tap Settings General VPN Add VPN Configuration.
2. Tap one of the protocol options.
The iPad software supports the protocols L2TP (Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol), PPTP (Point-
to-Point Tunneling Protocol), and IPSec, which apparently provides the kind of security that
satisfies network administrators.
3. Using configuration settings provided by your company, fill in the appropriate server
information, account, password, and other information.
4. Choose whether to turn on RSA SecurID authentication.
Better yet, lend youriPad to the techies where youwork and let them fill in the blanks onyour
behalf.
After you configure your iPad for VPN usage, you can turn that capability on or off by tapping (yep)
the VPN switch inside Settings.
Reset
As little kids playing sports, we ended an argument by agreeing to a do-over. Well, the Reset settings
on the iPad are one big do-over. Now that you're (presumably) grown up, think long and hard about
the consequences before implementing do-over settings. Regardless, you may encounter good reas-
ons for starting over; some of these are addressed in Chapter 16 .
Here are your reset options:
Reset All Settings: Resets all settings, but no data or media is deleted.
Erase All Content and Settings: Resets all settings and wipes out all your data.
Reset Network Settings: Deletes the current network settings and restores them to their fact-
ory defaults.
Subscriber Services: Here you have options to reprovision (or refresh) your account and re-
set your authentication code.
Reset Keyboard Dictionary: Removes added words from the dictionary. Remember that the
iPad keyboard is intelligent. And, one reason it's so smart is that it learns from you. So when
you reject words that the iPad keyboard suggests, it figures that the words you specifically
banged out ought to be added to the keyboard dictionary.
Reset Home Screen Layout: Reverts all icons to the way they were at the factory.
Reset Location & Privacy: Restores factory defaults.
