Processing Requirements

  • Wireless providers should retrieve and process this file at least nightly in order to avoid service outages for people visiting their campuses.
  • Identity providers should avoid service outages for their traveling community members by phasing updates to compensate for wireless provders' time lags for processing updates. Whenever possible, new addresses should be added at least a week before they will be required to allow for processing by UCTrust's metadata initiators and certifiers. Old addresses should not be removed until after they are no longer required.
