iPhone VPN Configure

iPhone VPN Configure

Set up a iOS device as VPN client

  1. Open the Settings app. Go to General, Network, VPN.
  2. Tap to add a new VPN configuration.
  3. Select the PPTP tab at the top.
  4. Fill the form:
    • Description: can be anything ("VpnTraffic" or whatever).
    • Server: set your router public IP address. If your IP address is dynamic, you should setup a dynamic DNS service
    • Account: the username you want to use for logging in
    • RSA SecurID: off
    • Password: the password you want to use for logging in. If you keep this empty, iOS will ask for the password every time you want to estabilish the VPN connection.
    • Encryption level: Automatic is fine
    • Send all the traffic: If you turn this on, when the VPN connection will be active, the device will use the VPN for accessing the Internet, so all browsing, mailing, twitting, etc. will go through the VPN. If you turn this off, the device will use the VPN only if you explicitly connect to a device in your router's LAN
    • Proxy: No is correct.
  5. Save the new configuration.
