You need to enroll devices to a Red Hat Edge Manager service before you can start managing them. The Red Hat Edge Manager agent that runs on a device handles the device enrollment.

When the agent starts on a device, the agent searches for the configuration in the /etc/flightctl/config.yaml file. The file defines the following configurations:

• The enrollment endpoint, which is the Red Hat Edge Manager service that the agent connects to for enrollment.
• The enrollment certificate, which is the X.509 client certificate and key that the agent only uses to securely request enrollment from the Red Hat Edge Manager service.
• Additional agent configuration options, such as system information reporting and enrollment labels.
