eduroam RFC 7593 (informational)
▻http://www.geant.org/News_and_Events/Pages/eduroam_milestone.aspx
The eduroam development team hopes that the operational experience that has been used to create this body of knowledge can benefit other sectors in their own parallel efforts in network roaming. Containing both the historical context and up-to-date implementation details of the eduroam service, the issues of managing a heavily distributed network roaming environment are captured succinctly, including changes and additions to IETF specifications as a result of broadening deployments.
Also captured in RFC 7593 are the alternative uses of technologies that underpin eduroam in broader trust and identity systems.

Abstract
This document describes the architecture of the eduroam service for federated (wireless) network access in academia. The combination of IEEE 802.1X, the Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP), and RADIUS that is used in eduroam provides a secure, scalable, and deployable service for roaming network access. The successful deployment of eduroam over the last decade in the educational sector may serve as an example for other sectors, hence this document. In particular, the initial architectural choices and selection of standards are described, along with the changes that were prompted by operational experience.
