Initiating a Connection
After you save a new connection, the Connections screen displays the list of all configured connections.
To initiate a Mobile Connect session
-
Tap the connection in the list that you want to initiate. The Connection page displays.
- Tap the VPN switch to enable the VPN.
- Type your credentials into the Username and Password fields, if prompted (depending on whether the appliance you are connecting to allows for saving usernames and passwords), and then tap Login.
-
When the connection is successfully established, the Status row changes to Connected and the VPN switch is on.
Any bookmarks defined for the portal are displayed following the Status row. You can launch a bookmark by tapping on it.
-
Press the Home button on your iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad to display its home screen. You can now navigate to other applications to access your Intranet network. The status bar at the top of the iPhone, iPod touch or iPad displays a VPN icon to indicate that the Mobile Connect session is still connected.
If the VPN connection is interrupted, the VPN icon disappears and you are no longer able to access the Intranet network. This can happen if your device's connection transitions from wireless to cellular or to another network type.
Return to Mobile Connect to reestablish the connection. Optionally, you can configure Automatic Reconnect on the Settings tab to have Mobile Connect automatically attempt to reestablish interrupted connections.
