If you want it to be a “carbon copy” of your existing iPad use “Quick Setup” but do NOT erase the old device when prompted near the end of the process.


Use Quick Start to transfer data to a new iPhone or iPad - Apple Support


If you want a “clean” iPad, just set it up w/o any transfer using your existing AppleID credentials.
