A technician is implementing a new SD-WAN device with a default configuration.

This process describes Zero-touch provisioning (ZTP), where a device automatically pulls its configuration from a cloud controller or URL once connected to the internet. It's common in SD-WAN and modern network appliances.

A. SASE (Secure Access Service Edge) refers to cloud-delivered network security, not a provisioning method.

C. Infrastructure as code automates infrastructure deployment using code, but this scenario specifically fits ZTP.

D. Configuration management tracks and maintains system configurations but doesn't describe the installation process.
