Abstract
A configuration control transfer ('CCT') system controls the transferring of control of configuration information of a device from a current configuration source to a target configuration source. A CCT server of the CCT system may send a request for the configuration information of the device where the configuration information of the device currently under control of the at least one first configuration source. The CCT server may also receive the requested configuration information, determine whether the second configuration source is able to support the configuration information of the first configuration source, and based at least on a determination that the second configuration source is able to support the configuration information, request that the device transfer control of the configuration information from the first configuration source to the second configuration source to unenroll the device with the first configuration source and enroll the device with the second configuration source.
