eduroam Operations has created a tool which allows you to upload the information above, and in return generates custom installers for your IdP, for immediate consumption by your end users. The tool is called the "eduroam Configuration Assistant Tool" (eduroam CAT website; IdP Administrator manual). For the operating systems supported by CAT, helpdesk instructions can be limited to "go to this website, use the installer". Please see the section on compatible devices further down on this page.

For other operating systems, you need to create installation instructions (screenshots, click-through videos, ...) yourself. We always welcome volunteer work for CAT modules for new Operating System support.

 

. Be aware though that the security model of eduroam depends heavily on the validation of the EAP server certificate; due to that, your end-user instructions for all devices MUST include

  • the installation of the CA certificate of your EAP server certificate
  • the configuration of the name (CN) of the EAP server certificate
  • the EAP type to use

You can also comment on this page if you have found a nifty way to ease eduroam configuration on devices not currently supported by CAT.

NB: this page used to contain very outdated and obsolete click-through instructions for Windows (SecureW2), Mac OS (version 10.5 only), and Linux (wpa_supplicant command-line only). A superset of these is supported automatically these days by simply using eduroam CAT. These instructions also mentioned Intel PRO/Set Wireless for Windows XP; an operating system which faces obsoletion by 08 APr 2014. You should not use any of those old instructions any more; they are merely linked to here for completeness.
