'''Older iPhone and iPad devices running iSO 8''' need a 'profile file' to be generated and then sent to the device. This file contains the IPsec details. FireBrick has a bash script that can be used (on a linux or windows machine with cygwin) to generate the file. This are easier in iOS 9. If you are running iOS9 then see the [[FireBrick Road Warrior iPhone iPad iOS9|iOS 9 Page]].
