Abstract
As part of deployment of a device, the device typically must be installed and configured, which may be referred to as 'onboarding.' Device onboarding typically involves installation of the physical device and setup of credentials so that it can securely communicate with its target cloud or platform. If the device is unable to successful connect with a rendezvous server, the onboarding process becomes blocked and cannot continue. Currently, there are no automated remediation mechanisms to fix a device so that it can complete secure onboarding. In one or more embodiments, a facilitator acts as an intermediary between a device agent and an owner service. The facilitator helps facilitate automatic resolution of issues that are inhibiting the device from completing secure device onboarding.
