# eduroam for ChromeOS

This source provides a technical guide for configuring the secure [[eduroam]] WLAN on devices running the **ChromeOS** operating system at the Universität Greifswald.

## Key Procedures

### Profile Generation
To configure eduroam on ChromeOS, users must first generate a configuration profile via [[easyroam]]:
1. Log in to `https://easyroam.de`.
2. Select **"Manuelle Optionen"** (Manual Options).
3. Enable the option **"Open Network Config (ChromeOS)"**.
4. Assign a name to the profile and click **"Zugang generieren"** (Generate Access).
5. The profile is then automatically downloaded to the device.

### Profile Installation
The downloaded profile must be imported into the ChromeOS network manager:
1. Open the browser and navigate to the internal URL `chrome://network`.
2. Use the **"ONC-Datei importieren"** (Import ONC file) function to upload the downloaded profile.
3. Once imported, eduroam will appear in the list of known networks and can be connected.
