1. Eduroam @ Norwegian airports
NTW2013

2. Why eduroam at airports?
Attempted 3 years ago – technical limitation
«Demand» from parts of community
Inspired by Sweden
From UNINETT a general wish to expand the eduroam footprint
Increase awareness and “market” the brand
Airports seemed a good place to start – also since Avinor (Airport operator) showed interest.
19 airports have eduroam during the pilot, 1. July to 1. December.
University in Tromsø contacted their local airport – and asked if UNINETT could investigate for all airports.
Sweden reported positive feedback and generally more awareness.
The airports:

3. Current implementation
Picture just showing 1 of 18 airports beside OSL.
All eduroam clients auth requests gets proxied through Avinor Radius to a Radsecproxy at UNINETT and from there to our NTLS.
Clients gets a RFC 1918 address and Internet access through local connection. Accounting collected by Avinor and also transferred to UNINETT.

4. Statistics
Cost model
Fixed
Entry fee per airport
Monthly rent for WLAN and WAN connection
Variable costs
Up to 25MB (avg pr user) pay per MB. No cost above.
Total of around 9500 unique MAC addresses each of the 2 first months.
So numbers quite stable.
Of the 9500 unique users over 7000 used the service at Gardermoen.
Numbers are higher than expected, our estimate was 6000 unique users each month – from the numbers we got from SUNET

5. What next?
Conclude evalutation in December
Could change implementation (point to multipoint into own network)
Expect to enter agreement with few airports initially
Working with alternative cost models
Questions?
More information contact
During pilot we need to suggest a way to distribute costs to institutions – very variable willingness to accept this.
Also Avinor operate with quite a commercial price list, we try to argue that we should be treated as a special case.
Airport have a free captive portal solution – so we really do not consume a lot of additional BW.
