How Secure is VPN Client on IPad That's Also Being Used As a Hotspot?

We are looking at allowing iPads to be used as personal hotspots for our field staff instead of MiFis. Our iPads have access to connect via a VPN connection. One of our tests was to connect to the VPN on the iPad and then connect a laptop to the hotspot. It appears that the VPN connection on the iPad is safe and isolated from the newly connected laptop but we would like confirmation as to how secure the VPN connection is on the iPad from the laptop?
Thanks.

Hi snowmizer ,
My recommendation , if you want to add extra-security to your VPN is to use certificate authentication with the IPAD.
Hope this helps,
Regards,

TS2756 How do I connect my new iPad to my iPhone 4S using my personal hotspot?. I put my pass word In put will not work

How do I connect my new iPad to my iphone4s using my personal hotspot on my iPhone.
It will take my pass word.

when you switch your hotspot on your phone you will see a user password - when you switch your laptop on and search for your iphone connect and you will be asked for the user password once you enter it and click connect you will link the two devices and they will work together as long as you have a good signal and good data allowance you shouldn't have any issues

How secure is Internet shopping with ipad mini

Same as any other iPad or iPhone.
There has been no malware that I have heard of on the iPad.
I would say it is very safe. I buy on the inernet all the time.
Optional: for a minor improvement in security, change your DNS server to Google
You could change your DNS server to Googles. I use Google.
Google provides free dns lookup. Their numbers are:
8.8.8.8
8.8.4.4

How do I sync a new iPad that I've already started using, and don't want to lose the data?

I have a new-ish iPad that I have started using without syncing to iTunes.
I now need to sync iBooks, if that is possible, with my iPhone. I gather that the best way to do this is to link the iPad and iPhone up with iTunes.
When I plug the iPad into my iMac, it appears as though it will delete all the existing content on my iPad as it thinks it is a brand new, unused iPad. I don't want this.
How do I connect the iPad to iTunes for the first time, without it erasing what I already have on it?

Sadly, none of this works.
I have backed up using PhoneView and iCloud. When I plug the iPad in, I can't access anything other than a binary option that says 'set up as a new iPad' or restore from a previous back-up. Sadly, none of the iCloud back-ups that I have done from my iPad appear in the list.
Looking at the list provided above, I can only do steps 1-3.
4. Store>Authorize this computer.
- This doesn't work. A pop-up appears saying that I have already authorised 4 devices. It won't let me do anything else with this.
5. File>Transfer Purchases(To make sure all purchased content on your phone will be in your iTunes library).
- Greyed out - can't do this.
- None of the things below therefore work either.
6. Right click your phone in the left device pane & select "Reset warnings".
7. Right click again and select "Backup".
8. Right click again & select "Restore from Backup", select the backup you just made. When prompted to create another backup, decline.
9. This MUST be followed by a sync to restore your iTunes content, which you select from the various tabs, You'll get a popup regarding your contacts & calendars asking to merge or replace, select "Merge".

Advice on how to access photos on an iPad that were synced from a now failed laptop? The question stems from a need to return my current iPad having just taken delivery of a new unit. Thanks

I am after some advice on how to access photos on an iPad that were synced from a now failed laptop? The question stems from a need to return my current iPad having just taken delivery of a new unit. Thanks

If you have a dropbox account, there's a free app (probably more) that syncs photos to your dropbox account - picbox.
There's also PhotoSync that syncs photos to/from a number of different services and devices.

How to make VPN client auto timeout when it still idle?

How to make VPN client auto disconnect when it still idle?
Hi,I found some user still connected the VPN evenif they dose not use the VPN resouse.
I try to set a "idle timeout" for the VPN configuration.
We use PIX515 8.0.3 and CISCO ACS 4.2 for the VPN's connection and authentication,and the user use cisco vpn client for the connection.
I have tried many methods,but all failured.
First,I configed "vpn-idel-timeout 5" on PIX.It can not worked.
so,I add Radius(CISCO VPN 3000/ASA/PIX 7.0+) attribute "[026/3076/050] Authenticated-User-Idle-Timeout" on CISCO ACS,It still not worked.
And I also add IETF RADIUS Attributes "[028] Idle-Timeout" on group setting on ACS,it always not worked.
i found in vpn client's statistics,it always has some byte sended or received, i thought it maybe IPsec keepalive message or Radius message.
This maybe the reason because the PIX or ACS think the vpn user is keep working.
Can someone tell me how to make a "idle time out"?
best regard.
Roger

How do I delete photos on iPad that were copied from a computer?

How do I delete photos on iPad that were copied from another computer or SD card?

If they were synced from a computer then you can't delete them directly in the Photos app on your iPad, you will have to connect your iPad to your computer and use the iPad's Photos tab in your computer's iTunes to change your photo sync selection to exclude them
If the photos were copied onto the iPad from an SD card via the camera connection kit then you should be able to delete them in the Photos app e.g. via the Select button top right if viewing the photos in thumbnail view in Photos.

How do I find out that Overflow is being used

We have configured Overflow for one of our Caches using bdb.
I have a few questions with regard to the overflow scheme
1. How do I test that Overflow is being used indeed ?
2. Where does bdb store its data, is it on the file system or in memory ? Is there a way to see the data in the bdb scheme ?
3. Following is the configuration we are using, is that the right way to use overflow ?
Thanks,
J

Hello,
BDB will store its data on the file system. You can specify the locatino with the following:
<bdb-store-manager>
<directory>{FILE_LOCATION}</directory>
</bdb-store-manager>
As far as I am aware you can't see the data in the bdb scheme.
