Simplify eduroam Integration with Cloud-Native RADIUS
Foxpass helps colleges and universities deploy or expand eduroam access with secure, scalable RADIUS infrastructure and streamlined identity federation support.
What is eduroam?
eduroam (education roaming) is a global identity federation that allows students, faculty, and researchers to securely connect to Wi-Fi at any participating institution using their home institution credentials.
Participating in eduroam requires:
A compliant RADIUS server supporting EAP authentication
Integration with your institution’s identity provider (IdP)
Support for certificate-based (EAP-TLS) or identity-based (EAP-TTLS) authentication
Trust configuration and federation participation via your national operator (e.g., InCommon in the U.S.)
The Challenge for Campus IT Teams
Maintaining on-prem RADIUS infrastructure is time-consuming and error-prone
Certificate management (EAP-TLS) creates user support burden
Federating with eduroam requires technical coordination and compliance
Scaling to multiple campuses or guest networks introduces complexity
Foxpass helps universities and colleges adopt and scale RADIUS infrastructure that meets eduroam requirements — with a cloud-native, zero-maintenance approach
