Deploying a new network device in a location where the operator has
no staff of its own often requires that an employee physically travel
to the location to perform the initial install and configuration,
even in shared facilities with "remote-hands" (or similar) support.
In many cases, this could be avoided if there were an easy way to
transfer the initial configuration to a new device while still
maintaining confidentiality of the configuration.

This document extends existing vendor proprietary auto-install to
provide limited confidentiality to initial configuration during
bootstrapping of the device.

This document is a product of the Operations and Management Area Working Group 
Working Group of the IETF.
