FAQ
Example:
In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
- Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
- To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
- Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
- If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
- Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.
Informations about the package cat
CAT, the Configuration Assistant Tool for Enterprise Wi-Fi networks such as eduroam
CAT collects information about RADIUS/EAP deployments from Wi-Fi network administrators and generates simple-to-use, good-looking, and secure installation programs for users of these networks. The goal is to vastly improve the network security by pushing secure Wi-Fi settings to all users without the need to expose them to or require them to understand all of the underlying technologies and configuration parameters.
eduroam CAT User Manuals
The flagship of CAT, the eduroam CAT (https://cat.eduroam.org), has extensive documentation (with screenshots!) of CAT. You may want to read those for an overview of the features.
eduroam CAT/Managed IdP National Roaming Operator documentation
eduroam CAT institution administrator documentation eduroam Managed IdP institution administrator documentation
There is no documentation for end users, simply because it's so easy to use on the end-user side that no documentation is required! :-)
The source code is thoroughly documented using PhpDocumentor 3.
Large parts of the code can be remote-controlled using the UserAPI and AdminAPI.
Known deployments
There are three known production deployments of CAT (please let us know if you are deploying the software and want to be on this list!).
- eduroam CAT https://cat.eduroam.org (for all eduroam institutions and users world-wide)
- eduroam Managed IdP https://hosted.eduroam.org (deploying exclusively the 'silverbullet' feature set, for eduroam institutions and users world-wide)
- Enterprise Wi-Fi CAT https://enterprise-wifi.net (for enterprise networks unrelated to eduroam)
Installation and configuration of your own deployment
With the production deployments as listed above, there are probably few use cases you would want to run your own installation. If you do want to deploy CAT yourself, the installation and configuration instructions can be found at Configuration.md
