Title:

Accesso Wireless Federato presso l'Infrastruttura di Rete CNR Piemonte (Federated Wireless Network Authentication at Piedmont CNR network Infrastructure)

Description:

RT 34; The CNR Ceris IT Office was an active subject in the designing phase of IDEM (federated IDEntity Management for service access), the GARR project of the Italian Federation for network authentication and authorization, and has acquired a wide experience in federated services and in the SAML platform. IDEM has now reached a stable production level and the services accessed through our IdP are appreciated by Piedmont CNR users (for example, electronic publications or videoconferencing reservations). To improve our network services we have extended wireless access with federated authentication to simplify user login and mobility among GARR research and educational institutions. The new feature has been developed by Shibboleth open-source software installed on a Linux Ubuntu server and some code in the PHP language, integrated with the Guest Services of the Sonicwall Network Security Appliance NSA-5500 by secure communication over HTTPS and digitally signed messages.
