Linux

Step-by-step instruction

During the setup, the access data of your university account (the same as for E.L.V.I.S., moodle) are required, not those of the applicant account! Please make sure that you have already changed your initial password for your university account. If this is not the case, you must change the password in advance via the URMZ user portal.

  1. Open the network manager (under Ubuntu you can find it under Settings → Wi-Fi)
  2. Click on eduroam under ‘Visible Networks’
  3. Fill in everything as shown in the picture
    1. Security: WPA & WPA 2 Enterprise
    2. Authentication: Tunnelled TLS
    3. Anonymous identity: eduroam@uni-erfurt.de
    4. Domain: radius1.uni-erfurt.de

    6. Inner authentication: PAP
    7. Username: username for your university account
