Server Provisioning
Server provisioning is one of the more prominent types of network provisioning.
That’s because your network will need to be provisioned with the right data,
which is where networks come in. There are several steps to this. These are:
• Installing the operating system, drivers, tools, and partitioning;
• Installing software.
• Setting IP addresses and other parameters.
• Partitioning or installing visualization software.
• Connecting to wi-fi.
• Auditing the system and addressing any mistakes.
Companies often use web-based servers, in which case the process is the
same. The main difference is seen in the interface that will be used.
Device Provisioning
Quite a lot needs to be done before any hardware can be deployed. This will
usually revolve around customizing, configuring, securing, and verifying the
device. These devices will then need to be assigned to specific users. In doing
so, keeping the device and user identities separate is a common best practice.
Taking this approach allows for greater flexibility, better device management,
and the sharing of devices.
