Abstract
A network device may receive a redundant identifier certificate associated with a redundant routing module, and may provide, to a bootstrap device, a primary identifier certificate associated with a primary routing module associated with the network device. The network device may establish a secure connection with the bootstrap device based on the bootstrap device verifying an authenticity of the primary routing module via the primary identifier certificate. The network device may provide, to the bootstrap device via the secure connection, a redundant routing module identifier associated with the redundant routing module and may receive, from the bootstrap device via the secure connection, a signed certificate chain associated with the redundant routing module. The network device may verify the signed certificate chain and may verify the redundant identifier certificate, associated with the redundant routing module, based on verifying the signed certificate chain.
