Don, Glad to hear that you are going to be deploying eduroam on your campus. If you haven't already done so, make sure to fill out the form at www.eduroamus.org The team that runs the US top level server is great to work with, and the form on the site will put you in contact with the right people to get up and running. For an SSID you will need to broadcast eduroam on your campus for others to point to, and your users that travel will look for eduroam at other campuses around the world. There are lots of options for authentication, and I would be interested in hearing what your campus is thinking of doing. I recently did a tutorial with Philippe Hanset (University of Tennessee), David Worth (University of Tennessee), Glen Johnson (University of Alaska), and John Mitchell (University of Alaska) on this that you should check out for some more info. http://events.internet2.edu/2011/jt-uaf/agenda.cfm?go=session&id=10001834&event=1151 Between that slide deck and the info on the eduroam-US site, you should be able to get a pilot up and running. Let me know how the deployment goes. Thanks
