The OpenGL ES 2.0 Programming Guide

Porting the Sample Code to the iPhone
The process of porting the sample code from the book to the iPhone highlights some of the unique features of the iPhone. In particular, some of the unique features of the development environment include:

  • The use of Objective C
  • The process of creating an EGL rendering context using the EAGLContext.
  • Detection of device capabilities and creating an OpenGL ES 2.0 context
  • The use of a framebuffer object as the primary rendering surface

Once you have created and setup a rendering context, programming with OpenGL ES 2.0 on the iPhone is identical to any other platform. However, there are some unique aspects of the platform that are worth understanding before jumping into the code.

iPhone in Business Virtual Private Networks

VPN protocols

  • Cisco IPSec
  • L2TP/IPSec
  • PPTP

Authentication methods

  • Password (MSCHAPv2)
  • RSA SecurID
  • CRYPTOCard
  • X.509 digital certificates
  • Shared secret

VPN Deployment Scenario
The example depicts a typical deployment with a VPN server/concentrator as well as an authentication server controlling access to enterprise network services.

  1. iPhone requests access to network services (typically over a PPP connection).
  2. The VPN server/concentrator receives the request and then passes it to the authentication server.
  3. In a two-factor token environment, the authentication server would then manage a time-synchronized token key generation with the key server. If a certifi cate authentication method is deployed, an identity certifi cate needs to be distributed to iPhone prior to authentication. If a password method is deployed, the authentication process proceeds with user validation.
  4. Once a user is authenticated, the authentication server validates user and group policies.

VALENTINE CRAFT IDEAS

Romantic Rocks
This is an activity and craft for the whole family to grab hold of. Find heart-shaped rocks out in the wild and then tame them at home.
CRAFT MATERIALS:
Heart shaped rocks
Paint
Newspaper towels

  1. Search for heart-shaped rocks in the rockiest places near you: a stream bank, a driveway, the parking lot. They don’t have to be perfect, as long as they have the two telltale lobes of a heart and some sort of point at the bottom.
  2. Clean them and let them dry on newspaper or a paper towel.
  3. Now it is time to get creative! Set everyone to work painting the rocks.
  4. add Valentine message, quotes, names of kids…

Bighearted Hello
CRAFT MATERIALS:
Scissors
Red card stock
Hole punch
Heavy red yarn (we used chenille)
Tacky glue
40-millimeter googly eyes
Markers

White paper or card stock Scotch tape

Wireless setup guide for iPhone/iPod Touch

Introduction
This document describes how to connect an iPhone/iPod Touch to the RMIT secure wireless network (RMIT-WPA). The steps to getting connected are connecting to unsecured RMIT wireless network, installing the RMIT University profile and then connecting to the secure RMIT-WPA network. Finally, proxy settings must be configured. These steps are documented in this guide.

Instructions for iPhone/iPod Touch users
2.1 Preparation
Before beginning your wireless configuration, please ensure your Novell (NDS) account is active and that the password has not expired. This is your staff ‘e’ number or your student ‘s’ number.

2.2 Connecting to RMIT wireless
It is necessary to first connect to the unsecured RMIT network so that the RMIT profile can be downloaded, enabling connection to the secure network. To connect to the unsecure RMIT network:

  1. Step 1. Press the Settings icon from the home screen of your iPhone or iPod Touch.
