Provisioning–a way to automate platform tasks

Provisioning applies to subordinate controllers, which are represented in the Supervisor station as devices under the NiagaraNetwork. Provisioning from a Supervisor station automates some platform tasks.

The Niagara Provisioning Guide explains how to configure and provision remote hosts.

Some provisioning views provided by a Supervisor are nearly identical to platform views described in this document, including the Software Manager and Application Director, and work in the same fashion. If you are new to Niagara, become familiar with the direct platform views described in this document, before using provisioning from a Supervisor.
