TERENAeduroam Europe
The eduroam service in Europe is a confederated service, provided through the collaboration of 36 national-level federations. These involve hundreds of institutions, the majority of which own and operate the service’s infrastructure. National and international coordination of this infrastructure is undertaken by the national roaming operators and a central eduroam Operational Team that is funded by the GÉANT (GN3) project.The Operational Team carries out day-to-day operations, with participants from Srce, SURFnet, UNI-C and TERENA.
The eduroam Service Activity of the GÉANT (GN3) project has provided tools to monitor the service and to support end-users.
eduroam continues to develop and evolve thanks to the support of the
GÉANT-funded Joint Research Activity (JRA3).
Previous funding has produced:
- Efforts to standardise RadSec within the IETF
- RadSec Integration into eduroam Infrastructure
- RadSecProxy
- Initial infrastructure to support RadSec in FreeRADIUS
- New Extensible Authentication Protocols
- Support for the Internationalisation of eduroam usernames
- Privacy preserving identification for statistical and threat analysis

Data are being gathered by the eduroam Operational Team to produce a real-time Google map depicting eduroam coverage in each of the countries.
The ETLR are operated by the national research and education networking organisations in the Netherlands - SURFnet - and in Denmark - UNI-C -with funding from the GÉANT (GN3) project.
