However, the connection to APNs is invalid for both.<BR /> Any idea whether any additional setting/certificate needed to make it work?</P> Wed, 15 Jul 2015 09:54:37 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Security/Mobile-Access-Server-Invalid-APN/m-p/122692#M14447 imanpoeiri 2015-07-15T09:54:37Z https://community.splunk.com/t5/Security/Mobile-Access-Server-Invalid-APN/m-p/122693#M14448 <BLOCKQUOTE> <P>the connection to APNs is invalid for both</P> </BLOCKQUOTE> <P>This means the servers in your network cannot reach APNs.
