These access points broadcast one or more SSID’s, which the devices can connect with and thus get internet access. The term SSID stands for Service Set Identifier and is simply the name of a WLAN network. RWTH offers many SSID’s such as:
- eduroam for students, employees and guests of participating institutes
- RWTH-guests for quests without an eduroam identification
- RWTH-devices for IoT devices, e.g. measuring instruments and sensors
