Use the 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. VPN 
works over both Wi-Fi and cellular data network 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 iPod touch.

Once you’ve entered VPN settings, a VPN switch appears at the top level of the 
Settings menu that you can use to turn VPN on or off.

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

Turn VPN on or off:  Tap Settings and turn VPN on or off.

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

Use Wi-Fi:  See “Wi-Fi” on page 89.
