Network

Use Network settings to configure a VPN (virtual private network) connection, or access Wi-Fi settings.

Add a new VPN configuration: Choose General > Network > VPN > Add VPN Configuration.

VPNs used within organizations allow you to communicate private information securely over a non-private network. You may need to configure VPN, for example, to access your work email on iPod touch.

iPod touch can connect to VPNs that use the L2TP, PPTP, or Cisco IPSec protocols.

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 iPod touch.

Once you enter VPN settings, a VPN switch appears in the Settings menu that you can use to turn VPN on or off.

VPN may also be automatically set up by a configuration profile. See “Connecting to the Internet” on page 19.

Change a VPN configuration: Choose General > Network > VPN and tap the configuration you want to update.

Turn VPN on or off: Choose VPN, then tap to turn VPN on or off.

Delete a VPN configuration: Choose General > Network > VPN, tap the blue arrow next to the configuration name, then tap Delete VPN at the bottom of the configuration screen.
