The mailing list for users of the eduroam Configuration Assistant Tool (CAT)

[Paul Hii <Paul.Hii AT aarnet.edu.au>]

Hello,

 

I need help understanding what the eduroam CAT really does to . Maybe you can point me at the documentation that explains fully what CAT really do when installing on devices because I’ve read but I still don’t understand.

 

I understand that the CAT tool will install the root and intermediate certificates required to validate the institution’s server certificate.

 

When CAT creates the “eduroam” profile, does it already tell the eduroam profile the name of the server certificate to expect? Is this why the CAT setup requires the signing authority certificate files but only the server certificate name needs to be supplied? I like to understand the purpose of specifying the server certificate name.

 

Can the CAT configure anonymous outer identity?

 

Thanks,

Paul
