WAN through Hotspot 2.0/Passpoint
Introduction
- Not all WiFi devices supports WPA2 Enterprise security (Using a username and password or certificates)
- We identified this potential problem and created a solution for it.
- This page will unpack our solution in more detail.
The Eduroam Travel Router
- Consider the following practical example.
- Meet Tim.
- Tim is the network administrator of a big university somewhere in Europe.
- The university participate in Edoroam
- The university has a couple of scientists that are working on specialized equipment which only have network access through an Ethernet port.
- Each of these scientists will be traveling then next few months to visit other universities to do demonstrations and talks.
- Those universities also participate in Eduroam.
- Tim now configure an Eduroam Travel Router on APdesk for each of these scientists.
- This will allow them to connect their specialized equipment to the router while the router uses the Hotspot 2.0 connection as the uplink.
