Abstract

A network device may receive encoded provisioning information from a source of provisioning information, such as a bootstrap server, as part of a provisioning operation. An analysis tool on a client device or on the network device may be configured to obtain the encoded provisioning information, parse the encoded provisioning information to obtain one or more decoded portions of the provisioning information, and output information resulting from the parsing operation, thereby providing insight into device provisioning information often encoded in a complex manner.
