Hi,

We have been using eduroam as our primary SSID for a number of years; users can 
simply select the network and enter their username and password, accept the 
certificate and they're good to go.  One thing we've found to be successful for 
us is to accept both just the username and username@domain to enhance usability 
but the drawback is that we will have a few eduroam configured devices that 
won't work at other institutions.

We have RADIATOR perform a lookup via LDAP to determine the class of user 
(student, staff, high school user (as we have a high school as part of our 
University campus) and return the appropriate Tunnel Group ID for AAA override.

If there is no attribute in LDAP, we place them on the guest VLAN by default, 
however, the guest VLAN and student VLANs are identical in terms of access 
control.

Tristan
