Abstract

Disclosed are various examples for enrollment of gateway enrollment for Internet-of-Things (IoT) device management. In some examples, a client device receives a gateway management installation package from a management service. The client device installs a gateway management application to the gateway device using the installation package. Enrollment credentials are entered through a user interface generated using the gateway management application and shown on the client device. The client device instructs the gateway management application enroll the gateway device with the management service. Usage of the enrollment credentials prevents a user from being exposed to gateway credentials that authenticate communications between the gateway device and the management service.
