Mobile provisioning of a data center asset in a data center connectivity management environment

A system comprising:

• a processor;
• a data bus coupled to the processor;
• a data center asset client module;
• and,
• a non-transitory, computer-readable storage medium embodying computer program code, the non-transitory, computer-readable storage medium being coupled to the data bus, the computer program code interacting with a plurality of computer operations and comprising instructions executable by the processor and configured for:
• providing a data center asset with a data center asset client module;
• establishing a connection between a mobile device application and a connectivity management system;
• submitting a request to the connectivity management system via the mobile device application to establish connectivity with the data center asset client module;
• determining whether the data center asset has network connectivity;
• completing a device claim process for the data center asset via the mobile device application when the data center asset does not have network connectivity;
• establishing a connection between the data center asset client module and the connectivity management system based upon the request, the connection providing a secure communication channel between the data center asset client module and the connectivity management system;
• and,
• exchanging information between the data center asset client module and the data connectivity management system via the secure communication channel between the data center asset client module and the connectivity management system.
