Hi Jon,

Thanks for the reply.

 

That’s an interesting idea, however it’s not quite how I want to test this. I want to have a pre-prod server using our currently live radius certificate, which mimics what our users see at the moment. I would then add the secondary certificate to the test cat profile and test with devices how this affects them being able to connect to the preprod server, and then finally, change the certificate on the preprod server to match the secondary certificate being deployed by the test cat user profile.

 

If I connect to the eduroam SSID still my request will just get sent to my production radius server.

 

I’m not so worried about the ORPS side of things at the moment, as that’s working how I have it, and is just a simple proxy.

 

As it’s a quiet time of year here, I may be able to use the secondary SSID setting in the site wide options without it affecting too many users.

 

Cheers,

Andi

Hi Andi,

 

Could you not utilise a second realm e.g. test.cardiffmet.ac.uk to conduct this testing?  That way you can still configure the devices with the SSID eduroam, but use a different profile in CAT.  You can configure at the eduroam UK support server, an ORPS as a test server, this will configure the NRPS to send requests for test.cardiffmet.ac.uk to the ORPS test server?  You may need to do some tweaking to your existing server to either send test.cardiffmet.ac.uk to the ORPS test server or to the NRPS.

 

That way you get to continue to use ‘eduroam’ on those devices and do your testing, you also don’t affect existing users who may end up with this additional SSID being configured on all profiles.

 

eduroam (UK) support team (based at Loughborough University) are usually around on this list..

 

Cheers,

 

Jon

Hi Andi,

 

You cannot remove eduroam from the CAT, however, you can add additional SSID’s in IdP wide settings -> Media Properties.

However, since they are IdP wide, it will be added to all profiles.

Thomas

Subject: [[cat-users]] pre-prod environment

 

Hi all,

Is there a way I can configure CAT to configure an SSID other than ‘eduroam’? I’m trying to setup a new eduroam environment here, and I’m at the preprod stage at the moment. I want to test CAT with this environment and how different devices react when CAT is setup with two different CAs for an eventual CA migration, however I can only seem to get CAT to configure ‘eduroam’ which is obviously the name of my production SSID. It would be ideal if I could tweak this somehow to reflect my preprod SSID name.

 

Cheers,

Andi
