Tips for new Member States implementing and using the DE4A Connector

• Use connectathons as early as possible to share experiences in the setup and resolve issues together.
• Use the publicly available playground and instructions to set up and configure the national DE4A Connector.
• Configure the DE4A Connector using a less strict setup for cryptographic validation, to to sort out connectivity issues. Trying to solve issues with strict cryptographic adherence is difficult as the encryption can cause errors, that are not related to the actual functionality and connectivity.

Connectathons

The DBA pilot is establishing and testing connections between participating Member States, using connectathons. During these timeslots, experts of 2 (or more) countries join with technical experts of the DE4A program. The meetings are online, and focus on establishing the connection between DE4A Connectors oor eIDAS nodes. Pre-defined testcases are used to collect necessary proof that the connection is functioning correct. Any last-minute errors are being resolved immediately (if possible).

The connectathons for connecting the DE4A Connectors are scheduled in these timeslots:

		DT
		AT	NL	RO	SE
DR	AT		July 5th/9th	July 5th/9th	July 5th/9th (will be rescheduled)
	NL			June 1st/4th	June 28th/July 2nd (will be rescheduled)
	RO	July 5th/9th	June 1st/4th		June 28th / July 2nd (will be rescheduled)
	SE	July 5th/9th (will be resheduled)	June 28th / July 2nd (will be rescheduled)	June 28th / July 2nd (will be rescheduled)
