eduroam with Ubuntu/Linux

Please follow the steps below to setup eduroam wifi on devices using Ubuntu/Linux. We presume that you will use the NetworkManager.

You will need a connection to the internet (e.g. ethernet cable, Wi-Fi UniHGW-Offen or mobile) to setup easyroam.

Create and download configuration profile

First log in at https://easyroam.de.

After logging in, select "Manual options". Select the option PKCS12 and enter a name for the profile.

You will then receive a PKCS12 file for download

Install the profile

Download the URZ-easyroam-Installer. Then use this to create your eduroam configuration using the previously downloaded PKCS12 file (if you are using the NetworkManager):

bash configure-eduroam-with-easyroam "YOUR-PKCS12-File"

If you are not using the NetworkManager, please refer to the relevant documentation on how to set the eduroam configuration.

You can find the process of manual configuration and also an example for Arch Linux at:
