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

[黃麒翰 <chilin AT neko70.net>]

Dear eduroam and GÉANT Team,

I am ChiLin.H, a student in Taiwan. I am writing on behalf of our 
network administrator who is actively working on enhancing our campus 
network services.

We are currently in the process of implementing OpenRoaming for Identity 
Providers (IdP). Following the comprehensive documentation available on 
the GÉANT Wiki, we have successfully configured the required NAPTR DNS 
records [1] for our domain.

The next step outlined in the documentation is to configure our IdP 
profile using the eduroam Configuration Assistant Tool (CAT) to enable 
automatic configuration for our users' devices. The documentation states 
that administrative access to eduroam CAT is to be granted by our 
National Roaming Operator (NRO) [2].

Accordingly, we contacted our NRO in Taiwan (managed by the Ministry of 
Education under the Taiwan Academic Network, TANet). However, we were 
informed that they do not have the authority to grant or manage eduroam 
CAT permissions for individual institutions. This has brought our 
implementation process to a halt.

Therefore, we would like to kindly request your guidance on the 
following two matters:

1. eduroam CAT Administrative Rights: Could you please clarify the 
correct procedure for us to obtain administrative rights for eduroam 
CAT? If our NRO is indeed unable to provide this access, could your team 
directly assist us in creating and managing our institution's profile?

2. OpenRoaming Access Network Provider (ANP) Implementation: In addition 
to our IdP setup, we are also highly interested in becoming an 
OpenRoaming Access Network Provider (ANP). Could you please direct us to 
the appropriate contact, team, or documentation that could guide us 
through the onboarding process for ANPs? [3]

We are enthusiastic about joining the global eduroam and OpenRoaming 
community to provide a seamless and secure connectivity experience for 
our students and visiting academics. Any assistance you could provide 
would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for your time and support.

Sincerely,

ChiLin.H
