Title

Scale eduroam infrastructure to the size of WIFI4EU

Description

There were a multitude of reasons why the GÉANT community couldn't run the infrastructure for WIFI4EU.

Sufficient issues were exposed by managing this as a single centrailsed infrastructure (partially addressed by "get eduroam", "eduroam DEEP Learning", "eduroam SP-as-a-Service"). By identifying all the scaling blocks to existing eduroam services we'd be able to offer advice, guidance and technology push into govroam, WIFI4EU and eduroam services to support the existing infrastructure and development in new territories.

Great chance to accelerate the deployment of secure public Wi-Fi systems in the world and to inter-connect them. Related to my proposal of inter-roaming, but a separate work item dedicated to WiFi4EU is still preferred. (Hideaki Goto, NII)


Title

Develop inter-roaming architecture and "eduroam on NGH"

Description

Develop an inter-roaming architecture that connects various Roaming Consortia (RC) including eduroam, govroam, City Wi-Fi (secured), WiFi4EU, etc. to enable roaming, with or without Passpoint.

Make the deployment of off-campus eduroam/govroam services much easier. For example, eduroam accounts can be enabled on City Wi-Fi world-wide.

Contribute to the improvement of Hotspot 2.0 to make "eduroam on NGH" possible. (The current HS2.0 specifications and some implementations are known to have some issues hampering large RC creation.)

Contribute to the revisions of the WRIX specifications to make them as much compatible as possible with eduroam's. WRIX-i (interconnect) and WRIX-L (location) are the targets.
