Abstract
Methods, systems, and apparatuses for network management are described. A network device may provide a network that is accessible using a network credential. An internet of things (IoT) device may be required to be configured or provisioned before joining the network. The IoT device may be associated with a scannable identifier. A user device may determine the scannable identifier and, based on the scannable identifier, provide provisioning credentials to the IoT device.
