'''TODO:''' Android certificate validation
 
Quick and dirty options for validating the eduroam certificate:
 
# Do not validate: you will get online, but consider your connection to be as secure as a public hotspot
# (Android 7.1+ only) Use system certificates: This will check to make sure the certificate chains back to some CA in the system cert store. This is significantly better than no validation, but still not very good. You may also need to specify a domain. If so, use "vt.edu"
# Download and import the GlobalSign Root CA: detailed instructions to come. Since you are still not checking the CN, it is only marginally better than using system certificates.
# Use the [https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=uk.ac.swansea.eduroamcat eduroam CAT] tool: this will setup the whole wireless profile and use the correct CA and verify the CN. As such, it is the preferred method. Warning, it is ugly. If you have an existing "eduroam" profile, you will need to remove it. When it prompts for the username and password, use <YOUR-PID>@vt.edu and your network password. It relies on geolocation to prompt for the profile for the right school. You may need to go outside to get a good GPS signal. If it is able to do geo-ip (e.g., you are connected to the "VirginiaTech" SSID), it gets you close enough.
