A method and system for generating identity certificates. The method may include receiving a user login at a network appliance, determining that the network appliance is not initialized, and generating a provisionally unique identifier from the network appliance for identifying the network appliance. The method may include generating a certificate signing request (CSR) and sending the CSR, the provisionally unique identifier, and information about the user login to a service provider. Upon receiving a signed certificate from the service provider at the network appliance, the network appliance is initialized using the received signed certificate.
