Using the Setup Wizard in LANconfig to set up a VPN profile for the LANCOM myVPN app

This is how to use the Setup Wizard to provide an access account for a VPN client on an iOS device:
  1. Start LANconfig.

    LANconfig now automatically searches the local network for devices.

  2. Choose the required device from the selection window in LANconfig and select the Setup Wizard button or use the menu under Tools > Setup Wizard.
  3. Select the item Provide remote access (RAS, VPN) and then click on Next.

    You can skip the following information dialog with Next.

  4. From the drop-down list select the option LANCOM myVPN client and click on Next.
  5. Enter a name for this access account and select the address at which the VPN client on the iOS device can reach the router from the Internet. To continue, click on Next.

    The Setup Wizard will suggest a name that you can accept if you wish.

  6. If you have not yet configured a pool for allocating IP addresses to the connecting VPN devices, the wizard will prompt you the first time to specify a range of IP addresses for the pool in the following dialog. When connecting, the VPN device automatically assigns a free IP address to the iOS device from this pool.
    Note: If you have already configured a pool for allocating IP addresses to the connecting VPN devices, the VPN device automatically uses an address from the address pool, and the wizard skips the dialog shown here.
  7. The Setup Wizard displays the profile name and the PIN that was auto-generated for the VPN client. If you want to print out the PIN now, select the option Print PIN now. Click on Next.
  8. By clicking on Finish the Setup Wizard stores all the settings on the corresponding VPN device. If applicable, it then starts printing out the myVPN PIN.

    The myVPN module is now enabled on the selected VPN device. You can now start the myVPN app on your iOS device and enter the PIN to retrieve the VPN profile.
