Abstract
In one example, an enrollment device, such as a smart phone with an enrollment application executing thereon, obtains in situ enrollment information from at least one or more target device of a plurality of target devices in a network. The enrollment device provides the in situ enrollment information that is obtained from the at least one target device, to a security management device, such as a public key certificate generator (e.g., a certification authority) for the network, to facilitate target device configuration certificate generation for the at least one target device. The security management device uses the in situ enrollment information and other device specific information as well as operational information that is desired for a device, and issues a configuration certificate for the at least one target device. A system and methods are also set forth.
