An embodiment of the present invention provides an apparatus, comprising an RFID tag interfaced with the apparatus, the RFID tag enables wireless provisioning and configuration of the apparatus and may be a passive read/write RFID tag. The apparatus may be, in one embodiment, a platform such as a client or server and the passive RFID tag may be interfaced with the platform such that the tag's EEPROM can also be read from or written to by the platform using a wired serial connection. The apparatus may further comprise a host processor with an operating system (OS) and an embedded microcontroller, the embedded microcontroller may have access to dynamic and non-volatile memory capable of operating independently of the host processor and OS and with direct access to a network interface, wherein the RFID tag may be read from or written to by either a RFID reader or the platform via a direct connection to the embedded processor.
