You should be able to connect to the SSID NRM-Wlan-web2.
This network is aimed for computers that are "not connected
to the domain" ("ej domänansluten"), that is, a non-NRM-Win
OS computer.
Use your favourite tool to configure your wireless connection.
Below are the specific Wi-Fi security settings as displayed by *buntu's
GUI tool nm-connection-editor.
- Security: WPA & WPA2 Enterprise
- Authentication: Protected EAP (PEAP)
- Anonymous identity:
- CA certificate: (None)
- No CA certificate is required
- PEAP version: Automatic
- Inner authentication: MSCHAPv2
- Username: NRMUSERNAME
- Password:
An alternative WiFi for guests would have been "NRM-Guest-Wifi", but this network
blocks ICMP traffic and port 22 (no ping, no ssh, etc).
As an alternative, your guest could potentially use Eduroam.
However at the time of writing, Eduroam at NRM is not configured correctly (DNS issues)
which will hinder free usage of e.g. ssh and ping, etc.
Currently, there are no good recommendations for guests to get full access to the outside world from behind the NRM firewall.
We have used mobile devices to get around the firewall issues, which is obviously not an acceptable solution.
Description on a working solution is most welcome.
Notes:
On *buntu, settings for the connection is stored in
/etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/NRM-Wlan-web2
