1. A method comprising:
- performing processing associated with loading, with a boot agent injection module in communication with a processor;
a boot agent into a memory of a network device comprising the processor, the boot agent comprising executable code, and the network device not currently configured to connect a remote computer; and
performing processing associated with a using a the boot agent to configure, with the network device, the network device to connect to the remote computer, wherein once configured, the network device is configured to connect to the remote computer after a future remote device restart without reconfiguring,wherein performing processing associated with loading, with the boot agent injection module, the boot agent into the memory of the network device further comprises;
performing processing associated with transferring, with the boot agent injection module the boot agent to the network device via a network connection,wherein performing processing associated with loading, with the boot agent injection module, the boot agent into the memory of the network device further comprises;
performing processing associated with sending, with the boot agent injection module, an HTML link to a computer in communicating with the network device via a network connection, the HTML link comprising a link to the boot agent.
