Apple ME215LL/A Setting up Microsoft Exchange accounts, VPN access, Ldap and CardDAV accounts

Setting up Microsoft Exchange accounts

Microsoft Exchange provides email, contact, tasks, and calendar information that you can automatically sync wirelessly to iPad. You can set up an Exchange account directly on iPad.

Set up an Exchange account on iPad: Go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars. Tap Add Account, then tap Microsoft Exchange. Ask your service provider or administrator what settings you should use.

VPN access

VPN (virtual private network) provides secure access over the Internet to private networks, such as the network at your company or school. Use Network settings on iPad to configure and turn on VPN. Ask your administrator what settings you should use.

VPN can also be set up automatically by a configuration profile. When VPN is set up by a configuration profile, iPad may turn VPN on automatically whenever it’s needed. For more information, contact your administrator.

LDAP and CardDAV accounts

When you set up an LDAP account, you can view and search for contacts on your organization’s LDAP server. The server appears as a new group in Contacts. Because LDAP contacts aren’t downloaded to iPad, you must have an Internet connection to view them. Check with your administrator for account settings and other requirements (such as VPN).

When you set up a CardDAV account, your account contacts are synced with iPad over the air. You may also be able to search for contacts on your organization’s CardDAV server.

Set up an LDAP or CardDAV account: Go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars, then tap Add Account. Tap Other. Ask your service provider or administrator what settings you should use.
