Abstract
A configuration service comprises a deployment package and a production configuration for a network security device. One or more configuration parameters of the production configuration may be defined by an administrator of the network security device (e.g., the customer). The network security device may be preconfigured with a network address and identifier. The network security device may be configured to automatically request and apply the deployment package at deployment time by use of the preconfigured network address and identifier. The network security device may automatically request and apply the production configuration from the configuration service in response to applying the deployment package.
