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

[Simon Palmer <Simon.Palmer AT gowercollegeswansea.ac.uk>]

Hi Cesar,

Not sure we’re going to get an eduroam CAT tool, or specific ESP documentation for the ESP platform? That’d be nice.

 

I’m interested in how you get on with this, I’ve been wanting to find the time to try it. It used to be a problem several years ago, but should work these days:

idf.py menuconfig

Should support WPA2-Enterprise or WPA3-Enterprise, with EAP-TLS

 

https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp-idf/en/stable/esp32/api-guides/wifi-security.html

·         EAP-TLS: This is a certificate-based method and only requires SSID and EAP-IDF.

·         PEAP: This is a Protected EAP method. Usernames and passwords are mandatory.

·         EAP-TTLS: This is a credential-based method. Only server authentication is mandatory while user authentication is optional. Username and Password are mandatory. It supports different Phase2 methods, such as:

I’m not sure why PEAP here doesn’t have ‘EAP-‘ before PEAP – and it might be that you have to use EAP-TTLS

 

Also, there’s a thread here

https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf/issues/1297

about not being able to use mbedTLS crypto, so:

To fix it go to menuconfig > components config > Wpa supplicant > Unchek "Use mbedTLS crypto API"

Kind regards, Simon, Gower College Swansea.

Dears,

 

I hope you are doing well. I am reaching out to ask for guidance on how to connect an IoT device, specifically an ESP32, to the Eduroam network. Could you please provide the necessary instructions and let me know if any specific credentials or configurations are required for this type of connection?

 

Thank you in advance for your help. I look forward to your response.

 

Best regards,
