Let me clarify myself on the Policy point.
Policy says: "an encryption level SHOULD be WPA/TKIP or better". So
Policy is not a show stopper for providing WPA/AES only.
Yes it does, but no university can run AES only without kicking off a
significant number of users. And if we want to be guest-friendly then we
should not disable TKIP on our eduroam SSID at least for quite some time.
The fact that the policy allows us to run: dynamic WEP, WPA/TKIP,
WPA2/AES is exactly the problem. With a single SSID we have no option
but allow that, but this network will never work according to the
scenario "start your device and be on-line". eduroam2 can bring us a lot
closer to this, and what is more important, opens a path for achieving this.
I would change the order:
SSID eduroam1 with WPA/TKIP + WPA2/AES
SSID eduroam with WPA2/AES ony
I would keep eduroam1 for compatibility reason - if somebody has
problem from WPA2/AES they can switch back to eduroam1 ....
