Thank you for answer.

I understand that there was no update to the CAT tool around December 19,
2022.

I would like to change the question,

can you think of any reason why my iphone with CAT tools could not connect
EAP-TLS to Eduroam?

Also, after uninstalling the CAT tool on the same iPhone,
I was able to connect to Eduroam without any problems.

The CAT tools were installed with the following settings.

Organisation: Federated ID Service
User group: Member Certificate Profile
Installer :Apple device

Device Version: iPhone iOS 16.1

Regards.

Hello,

that particular profile was last changed by its administrator on 2021-11-29.
As I wrote before, our code update to the CAT website and installer
generators was in August 2022.

None of the these dates explain why things started working for you in
December 2022. Whatever the reason is, it has nothing to do with the tooling
we generate here.

Greetings,

Stefan Winter

You are right.

>when previous installs kept failing to work?

Previous installs stopped working after installing CAT.

the installation of the configuration profile never had any obvious errors
while installing?
It was always the /connection/ that didn't work?

No errors occurred during configuration profile installation.
When I tried to connect to eduroam on my iPhone, I got an error.

Which entry in CAT did you download and use?

I installed CAT with the following settings.

Organisation: Federated ID Service
User group: Member Certificate Profile
Installer :Apple device

Device Version: iPhone iOS 16.1

Hello,


I also tried to look at your institution's settings as defined in CAT.


I could not find "Tokyo Metropolitan University" in our list of connected
institutions.


Which entry in CAT did you download and use?

Sorry, I lacked an explanation.

Is there a way to check the version of CAT installed on the iPhone?

Also, the reason why I asked the question was written in the following email
on December 26,

Until now, EAP-TLS access was not possible on devices with Eduroam CAT
installed,
but it became possible from December 19th.
Have you had an update to Eduroam CAT recently?"
Let me ask you a question again.

I would like to know why EAP-TLS connection was not possible on an iPhone
with CAT installed and why it became possible to connect with the same iPhone
after December 19th.

so please answer if possible.


Regards.

Hello,


that update was in August 2022, with a few hotfixes in the weeks after.


Note that there is no "version of eduroam". Your eduroam Identity Provider
can work with the same settings, and the exact same resulting generated
installer, for many years. The version of the CAT website and generator does
not necessarily change anything in the content of the installer.


Maybe you are asking the wrong question. Why do you think it is important to
know any version? Is something not working?


Greetings,


Stefan Winter

Hi

Thanks for the reply.

If I can check the version of Eduroam installed by looking at the profile,
please tell me how to do it.

Also, what date did you update the CAT version to 2.1.0?

Regards.

Hi,

The version of CAT is what's on the website (so this applies to profiles).
However, if you're looking for the version of any apps, like geteduroam on
iOS or Android, or the old (obsolete 'eduroam CAT' app on Android), see the
below:

On Android, go to Settings, then Apps, find 'geteduroam' or 'eduroam CAT',
tap it and scroll to the bottom.

On iOS, go to General, iPhone Storage, search for 'geteduroam' and tap it.

Dear Eduroam CAT Support.

I am a system administrator at TOKYO METOROPOLITAN UNIVERSITY.

From the following page on November 22, 2022
I installed eduroam CAT for ios and am still using the same tool.
Is the CAT version 2.1.0?
