Good stuff- I hope we get some users after rolling it out. I did poll our
distributed support folks, and as of yet can’t find any hidden demand. At the
same time, we don’t know what we don’t know, ya know?

Lee,
To answer 2 and 3, I have seen many schools that were amazed at how many
eduroam users they had from all over the world and in many locations
(visiting scientists in labs, students from abroad in greenhouses!,...you name
it)
Here is a graph from University of Chicago (yes, they are known for having a
big International presence...but that was just in the first 3 months,
and it was back in 2010!!!)

I know this comes up frequently, so forgive me. We’re at a different place than
we were at last inquiry…
Syracuse University has become an Eduroam school, and as we speak we have happy
Eduroamers around the world. Woo Woo!
At the same time, we have yet to roll out Eduroam on our own campus and are
getting ready to in accordance to the Eduroam agreement. We’re trying to figure
out the best model:
1. Retire our own beloved 802.1x SSID, and use Eduroam in its place. This
has no favor with any of us, including our senior IT managers and so is not
gonna happen. (Though I value the opinions of others, not wanting to get into a
debate on this point :) )
2. Do a targeted rollout of Eduroam, in places where it is likely to be
used by visitors- academic buildings, etc. (So far, I can’t find evidence of
anyone coming to SU and asking for it). This model requires building a new WLAN
group or two and pushing it out to probably 20ish buildings out of our 200+
buildings.
3. Go the easy path, and push it the Eduroam SSID everywhere, as an
additional WLAN, and live with the fact that it won’t get a lot of use in most
places and puts management traffic in the air that isn’t generally going to be
used.
I can’t be the only one who has stood at this juncture and looked at the
situation the same way. Wondering what others have done between #2 and #3, and
what your level of satisfaction has been for whatever path you took.
