We also recently turned up eduroam.  While we are not concerned with discouraging on-campus use,  we did have concerns 
around IP-based software licensing and configured our RADIUS servers to return a VLAN ID (Tunnel-Private-Group-ID 
attribute) based on affiliation.  That may also work for you if your NAC device is upstream of your wireless 
controllers.

I am sorry if this has been discussed before, but we have recently turned up and eduroam ssid on campus and have 
noticed a mass exodus from our secured (with NAC) ssid over to eduroam where we are not posturing computers.  We have 
our normal concerns such as being able to quarantine a DMCA offender or a computer with malware until we can find it 
and get it cleaned, etc. 
 
If you are an eduroam school I would be interested in what you are doing do discourage or prevent students or even 
faculty/staff from using it in lieu of the secured ssid.
 
I apologize for bothering the non-eduroam schools. 
