I'm not aware that the VPN is any different with OS 3.0 compared to 2.x; what has changed?

Recently, I downloaded the iPhone VPN installation from the User Portal. All of the VPNs were configured correctly and functioned flawessly.

Cheers - Bob

VPN on demand is a new feature in OS 3.0 - but you cant configure it on the iphone itself - there is a enterprise configuration tool from apple.

Do you have a link to that? I just spent 15 minutes googling and searching the Apple website to no avail.

Thanks - Bob

Thanks, Wingman. I don't understand what's new and different. I guess it's only that the new Enterprise Utility lets you push VPN configuration along with other settings.

My understanding is it's kind of central management for all iphones used within an enterprise environment. I have never used it myself but I guess it could be used for pushing out certificates,vpn configurations and restricitions etc

I played with the original version of the Enterprise Utility a bit last year. As I recall, it did little more than allow the administrator to erase the iPhone when an employee was terminated. The new offering appears to be a tool useful for standardizing in a corporate environment. I'm impressed.

Thanks - Bob

Whichever cert is the 'Server Certificate' entered on the 'Global' tab of 'Cisco VPN Client'. The usual one is the 'Local X509 Cert'.

CHeers - Bob
