WPA2 Enterprise (eduroam) configuration

[PMitr2]

I'm struggling to get my edison connected to my University's network. I found https://software.intel.com/en-us/blogs/2014/12/04/connecting-intelr-edison-to-an-ieee-8021x-enterpri... this guide and it has helped a little bit.

Here is my eduroam.conf

[global]

Name = eduroam

Description = eduroam network configuration

[service_peap]

Type = wifi

Name = eduroam

EAP = TLS

CACertFile=/etc/ssl/certs/wpi-wireless.crt

Phase2 = EAP

Identity = username

Passphrase = password

My school has a details page but I'm having trouble correlating all these acronyms to my conf file

Wireless Name (SSID): eduroam

Security Type: WPA2-Enterprise

Encryption Type: AES (CCMP)

EAP Method: EAP-TLS (or TLS)

Root CA Certificate(s): WPI NetOps Wireless CA

Server Name:

Client Certificate:

Username:

Here's the error i get when I run commandctl connect eduroam:

Error /net/connman/service/eduroam: Method "Connect" with signature "" on interface "net.connman.Service" doesn't exist

Any help is greatly appreciated...

Hi,

What is the output of you typing connmanctl services? You should see a list of available networks you can connect to. Can you see eduroam? Also the command used is connmanctl not commandctl, make sure the error you are receiving is not because of this.

Alternatively, have you tried to connect to the network using configure_edison –setup?

output of connmanctl services

I then tried connmanctl connect eduroam

Error /net/connman/service/eduroam: Method "Connect" with signature "" on interface "net.connman.Service" doesn't exist

I tried the standard setup, but it gave me this
