VPNs used within organizations allow you to communicate private information
securely over a non-private network. You may need to congure VPN, for example,
to access your work email on iPad.
iPad can connect to any VPN that uses the L2TP, PPTP, or Cisco IPSec protocol. VPN
works over both Wi-Fi and cellular data network (iPad Wi-Fi + 3G) connections.
Ask your network administrator which settings to use. In most cases, if you’ve set up
VPN on your computer, you can use the same VPN settings for iPad.
Once you enter VPN settings, a VPN switch appears in the Settings menu, which you
can use to turn VPN on or o.
