This document relates to a process for deploying devices and automatically provisioning the devices to connect to a managed network upon powering on with minimal user involvement. Upon deployment of the device to an end point, a record can be established in a management server regarding the device, which can associate device specifications with a deployment profile to be used in provisioning the device. Upon powering on of the device at the end point, the device can automatically perform attestation with the management server, which can then provision the device according to the deployment profile without additional user intervention.
