In one example, enrollment credentials are generated that permit functionality limited to enrollment operations. A request to enroll a gateway with the management service is received. The request includes the enrollment credentials, and is received from the gateway. Gateway credentials are generated for authentication of the gateway with the management service. The gateway credentials are transmitted to an application executed by the gateway without being provided to the user by the application. The gateway is authenticated with the management service using the gateway credentials.
