Network

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.

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 in the Settings menu that you

can use to turn VPN on or oﬀ.

VPN may also be automatically set up by a conﬁguration proﬁle. See “Installing

Conﬁguration Proﬁles” on page 14.

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.

Bluetooth

iPod touch can connect wirelessly to Bluetooth headphone devices for music listening

(not available on ﬁrst generation iPod touch). See “Bluetooth Headphones” on page 31.

Turn Bluetooth on or oﬀ: Choose General > Bluetooth and turn Bluetooth on or oﬀ.

Location Services

Location Services allows applications such as Maps to gather and use data indicating

your location. Location Services doesn’t correlate the data it collects with your

personally identiﬁable information. Your approximate location is determined using

available information from local Wi-Fi networks (if you have Wi-Fi turned on).

You can turn Location Services oﬀ if you don’t want to use this feature. If you turn

Location Services oﬀ, you’ll be prompted to turn it on again the next time an

application tries to use this feature.

Turn Location Services on or oﬀ: Choose General > Location Services and turn

location services on or oﬀ.

To conserve battery life, turn Location Services oﬀ when you’re not using it.
