3 Manually Configuring Devices
This chapter describes how to configure iPhone and
iPod touch manually.
If you don’t provide automatic configuration profiles, users can configure their devices
manually. Some settings, such as passcode policies, can only be set by using a
configuration profile.
VPN Settings
To change VPN settings, go to Settings > General > Network > VPN.
When you configure VPN settings, the device asks you to enter information based on
responses it receives from your VPN server. For example, you’ll be asked for an RSA
SecurID token if the server requires one.
You cannot configure a certificate-based VPN connection unless the appropriate
certificates are installed on the device. See “Installing Identities and Root Certificates”
on page 55 for more information.
VPN On Demand cannot be configured on the device, you set this up using a
configuration profile. See “VPN On Demand” on page 36.
VPN Proxy Settings
For all configurations you can also specify a VPN proxy. To configure a single proxy for
all connections, tap Manual and provide the address, port, and authentication if
necessary. To provide the device with an auto-proxy configuration file, tap Auto and
specify the URL of the PACS file. To specify auto-proxy configuration using WPAD, tap
Auto. iPhone will query DHCP and DNS for the WPAD settings. See Other Resources at
the end of this chapter for PACS file samples and resources.
