FadianRoam

An eduroam-like roaming Wi-Fi federation for independent networks.

FadianRoam enables participants to deploy local wireless access points that authenticate users from any member site. A user with credentials at one member institution can seamlessly connect at any other member's location — just like eduroam, but open to independent network operators.

How It Works

1. Each member runs their own Identity Provider (IDP) and RADIUS server with a unique realm (e.g., @roam.example.net)
2. A central Federation Relay routes RADIUS authentication requests between members
3. Members interconnect via FadianNet VPN, which carries both management traffic and user data
4. Optional BGP integration allows members to contribute transit and build a shared internet backbone
