ABSTRACT:
Techniques that enable devices in a network environment to automatically obtain authentication without specialized human intervention during device deployment include a device having a pre-configured security key which a service facility uses to authenticate the device. These techniques enable a service facility to associate pre-configured security keys to owners/users of devices, and enable devices to be purchased without any custom configuration, and enable devices to be attached to a network and automatically obtain authentication and configuration based on the identity of the owner of the devices.
