Abstract
The initial core schema for the System for Cross-domain Identity Management (SCIM) was designed for provisioning users. This memo specifies schema extensions that enable provisioning of devices using various underlying bootstrapping systems such as Wi-Fi Easy Connect, FIDO device onboarding vouchers, Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) passcodes, and MAC Authenticated Bypass (MAB).
What “Proposed Standard” means
An entry-level standards-track specification: stable, peer-reviewed and a solid basis for implementation, though it may still evolve before becoming an Internet Standard.
