First, connect your iPad to the same network as your SharePoint Development VM.<\/p>\n

Next, go to the DNS server in your virtual SharePoint development environment and make sure an A record exists for the SharePoint server you wish to access from your iPad.<\/p>\n

In my example below, the FQDN for my domain is POWDER.SKI.<\/p>\n

The DC is named dc.powder.ski and it has an external IP address of 192.168.1.113.<\/p>\n

My SharePoint server has the IP 192.168.1.114 and I wish to browse to the intranet.powder.ski HNSC.\u00a0 You can see the A record for it in the example below.<\/p>\n

Next, go to your iPad and tap Settings and then, tap the Wi-Fi category.<\/p>\n

Click the arrow to the right of the Wi-Fi network your are connected to.\u00a0 This network must be able to access the SharePoint virtual Development environment.<\/p>\n

In the DNS section, add the IP address for the DNS server in your virtual SharePoint development environment .\u00a0 In my example, this IP address is 192.168.1.113.\u00a0 I tried adding the server at the end of the list, however that did not work so I added it to the front of the list.\u00a0 Make sure you put in the comma!<\/p>\n

Finally, turn off Wi-Fi and turn it back on.<\/p>\n

Now browse to your SharePoint site in the web browser, log in, and view the pages.\u00a0 In the example below I\u2019m looking at an Excel Workbook in a Document library.<\/p>\n
