When ADM5 or ADMx cannot be used as an Axis device provisioning tool, scripting is the best way to go. This Node-RED flow provides a simple template solution for common case mass configurations. It is easy to extend the template for non-common cases.

Typical use cases:

  • Mass deployment of Axis devices
  • Device Configuration Policy enforcer
  • Staging

Prerequisite

  1. Windows, Linux or Mac PC with [Node-RED Installed]
  2. Import node-red-subflow-axis-provisioning

Usage

  1. As a starting template, import exampel flow [Menu Import Examples node-red-subflow-axis-provisioning Axis Device Provisioning ) into Note-RED
  2. Double-click “Adjust device configuration here” and edit the JSON data to your policy
  3. Double-click “Adjust Device Inventory here” and edit your device inventory.
    Note that you can you can use a wide range of way to populate your inventory
  4. Trigger the inject node “Initialize”
  5. Trigger the inject node “Provision”
