I am trying to view Outlook live via my company VPN, but I am clueless how to set up on My MDA II. Can anyone here help?

My IT dept. does not support "wireless" so they will not assist.

My company uses Cicso Systems VPN Client on my laptop. To finalize logging in, Cisco uses a key card that has a constantly changing 6 digit password to enter (RSA SecurID).

The connection status tab gives me the following data:


Client IP Address: _ _ . _ _ _ . _ _ . _ _
Server IP Address: _ _ _ . _ _ _ . _ _ _ . _ _
Encryption: 168 bit 3-DES
Authentication: HMA_-_ _ _
Transparent Tunneling: Active
Tunnel Port: UDP _ _ _ _ _
Compression: None
Local LAN access: Disabled
Personal Firewall: NetworkICE BlackICE Defender
Firewall Policy: Are you there? (AYT)

I presume in some way, shape/fashion I need to take the above data and insert it in the requested slots in my MDA II. That is where I need your help.

Please help me fill in these blanks on my MDA II My VPN settings:

Host Name/IP:
VPN Type: (choose either IPSec/L2TP or PPTP
If I choose IPSec/L2TP, I then need to select whether I use a "certificate on this device" or "a pre-shared key" (then asks for key #).

If I select PPTP, I then bypass the above step.

Then it asks for user name and password. Followed by domain if provided.

If I select PPTP, I then bypass the above step.

If all the correct data is then entered into my MDA II, would I just open my "Inbox" to see mail on my company server?

Could I access on either Wi-Fi or GPRS?
