SSIDs

eduroam:

Eduroam is federation of network authentication servers which allow users at participating institutions to access a WPA2 Enterprise encrypted (or “locked”) Wi-Fi network with a common name (the “eduroam” SSID). Users at the University of Maine System campuses with “@maine.edu” email addresses can use the service either at the University of Maine Campuses, or when traveling to a participating institution. Conversely, users from other institutions can use the SSID at UMS campuses with the credentials from their home institutions.

Eduroam is a global service, to see participating institutions please visit:

eduroam-setup:

This is the SSID for setting up or "onboarding" a device to use certificate based (EAP-TLS) authentication with the "eduroam" SSID.

Tempest is a deprecated service, though there is no end-of-service date set. All students, staff, and faculty should transition to using eduroam.
