[AI] {Philippe} will send mail the <SALSA-FWNA-Ops> mailing list when the delivery date for the servers is known.

[AI] {Kevin and Philippe} will document the decisions made during the campus connection process, including test accounts.

[AI] {Kevin} will connect the Duke people with the <SALSA-FWNA-Ops> to move forward with how to set up the server.

Carry-over *Action Items*
[AI] {Kevin} will solicit volunteers to document the process of a site's implementation and participation in the experiment, which can be shared (by way of a cookbook, etc.) with fellow new users. (3-Nov-05)**

[AI] {Group} will think of local site requirements for security, logging, and access to utilization of information in the context of Eduroam, where non-local users are involved.* *(3-Nov-05)**

[AI] {Philippe and Kevin} will begin a separate implementation document for Lesson Learned as the experiment gets underway. (06-Oct-05) **

[AI] {Philippe} will work on updating the FWNA wiki to help capture important issues. (8-Sep-05)

[AI] {Philippe} will draft a use case focusing on shared facilities between two institutions. (24-Mar-05) **

*Discussion*
[AI] {SteveO} will arrange for a call with {Ken Klingenstein, Renee Frost, Andy, Philippe, and Kevin} regarding the organizational structure of the FWNA experiment.

A question was asked regarding how membership and funding affected the service. [AI] Philippe will summarize and email {SteveO} with ideas regarding the management of the service.

[AI] {Kevin} will send an email to {Renee} reporting consensus on scope of work.

The order has been sent for the top-level servers, and [AI] {Philippe} will send mail the <SALSA-FWNA-Ops> mailing list when the delivery date for the servers is known. Radius will be installed as the software of choice, and should arrive soon. {Michael Coffy} is the graduate student assisting {Philippe} at U. Tennessee. A conversation with the Eduroam folks may provide insight for configuring the servers. [AI] {Andy and Philippe} will email {SteveO} with a list of those from Eduroam, etc. whom {SteveO} will then invite to a discussion of the configuration of the top-level servers in late December or early January.

Once the top-level servers are set up and ready for service, participants are needed. {Kevin} said that Duke will be active at that point. Who are the others that should be contacted? {Kevin} suggested soliciting participation from those folks who have already showed interest at some point in the past, rather than targeting all the schools currently implementing 802.1x. {Rich and Mark} expressed interest on behalf of Penn State, but there are a few office issues to be worked through first.

{Philippe} suggested that each site have a way to have test accounts, such as to act as a visitor. This work will contribute useful documentation towards site implementation work. [AI] {Kevin and Philippe} will document the decisions made during the campus connection process, including test accounts. [AI] {Kevin} will connect the Duke people with the <SALSA-FWNA-Ops> to move forward with how to set up the server.

The call was cut short due to a temporary network outage affecting the phone bridge; unfinished conversation will continue on the <SALSA-FWNA> mailing list. The next SALSA-NetAuth – FWNA call will be held on Thursday, December 15, 2005 at 11am ET.
