Hi Neil,

 

Not knowing how the US eduroam policy is set up I guess not due to the fact
that eduroam is use by people and not machines. ;)

In Sweden we decided not to allow eduroam authentication using machine
certificates unless those certificate includes user id so that we can tie
the certificate to a user as we do with EAP-TLS using user certificates.

If I remember it correctly this was also discussed on the European level and
rejected for the same reason.

I see issues if we start having non personal devices roaming around the
world with no person responsible. But then on the other side if a clear and
easy definition on who owns what machine certificate is produced within the
institution I’ll guess it would work.

PS What you do locally at your home University is of course your own
business but those devices will only work back home for you. ;)

Ämne: [WIRELESS-LAN] eduroam and machine authentication

 

 

We are getting requests to do windows machine authentication on our eduroam
SSID (just for local machines). 

 

Is there anyone else out there doing this ?

 

Thanks.
