Abstract
In one embodiment, a domain controller (a) quarantines unknown devices at a first quarantine point at a first layer of a multi-layer communication model; (b) communicates with a domain name system (DNS) service to self-allocate and register a domain name with the DNS service; (c) receives a provisioning request for a first device via an access point, wherein the access point comprises a second quarantine point at a second layer of the multi-level communication model; (d) verifies a device type of the first device with the DNS service; and (e) responsive to that verification, provisions the first device into the domain. The domain controller may also send a provisioning response to the access point to enable the first device to be removed from the second quarantine point, to enable the first device to communicate with the domain controller. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
