    Abstract: A device may determine a boot up identifier for the device using information related to a deployment of the device. The boot up identifier may identify the deployment of the device. The device may perform a comparison of the boot up identifier and a provisioned identifier to determine whether the deployment of the device and an intended deployment of the device match. The provisioned identifier may identify the intended deployment of the device. The device may perform a boot up of the device in a particular mode of operation based on a result of the comparison. The comparison may indicate whether the deployment of the device and the intended deployment of the device match. The particular mode of operation may cause the device to boot up to recover or reconfigure the device.
