Eduroam is an initiative from TERENA which facilitates mobility of European researchers and students by offering 'wifi' connectivity in a number of institutions abroad. As such, users from institutions participating in Eduroam can access the Internet through the wireless networks of all participating institutions.

The only authentication method permitted at BSC-CNS for accessing the Eduroam network is 802.1x.
802.1x is one of the most secure authentication standards. Client software is necessary to establish an authentication session. TERENA recommends this protocol to ensure that only authenticated users can access network resources.
