iPad at Work

With support for secure access to corporate networks, directories, and Microsoft

Exchange, iPad is ready to go to work. For detailed information about using iPad in

business go to www.apple.com/ipad/business.

Using Conguration Proles

If you’re in an enterprise environment, you may be able to set up accounts and other

items on iPad by installing a conguration prole. Conguration proles let your

administrator set up your iPad to use the information systems at your company, school,

or organization. For example, a conguration prole might set up your iPad to access

the Microsoft Exchange servers at work, so iPad can access your Exchange email,

calendars, and contacts.

A simple conguration prole can congure many dierent settings on iPad. For

example, a conguration prole can set up your Microsoft Exchange account, VPN

account, and certicates for secure access to your company’s network and information.

A conguration prole may also turn on Passcode Lock, which requires you to create

and enter a passcode for using iPad.

Your administrator may distribute conguration proles either by email, by putting them

on a secure webpage, or by installing them directly on iPad for you. Your administrator

may have you install a prole that ties your iPad to a mobile device management server,

which allows your administrator to congure your settings remotely.

Installing conguration proles:

1 On iPad, open the email message or download the conguration proles from the

website your administrator provides.

2 For each conguration prole, tap the prole, then tap Install.

3 Enter passwords and other information that’s requested.

Important: You may be asked whether a conguration prole is trusted. If in doubt,

ask your administrator before installing the conguration prole.
