Audience - eduroam(UK) system administrators and implementors
The eduroam(UK) Technical Specification 1.4 has now been released and is effective as of 14th July 2016.
The update primarly addresses the removal of the requirement to forward RADIUS accounting messages to the NRPS, the expriy of the permissive grace period for TKIP, TLS proxies disallowed and the removal of LDAP and POP from the list of ports/protocols that must be open to visitors. Other changes are essentially general housekeeping and updates.

Facilitated by our Training Team, we're holding an eduroam clinic on 1st March 2016. These are great group forums in which to pose a question (by text or audio), hear the experiences of other members of the eduroam community and to learn from the answers of the expert panel consisting of the fab four eduroam(UK) Support team (and usually me). There is also the opportunity to go off into a private virtual room for in depth consultation with one of the panel.
