Looking for direction here. New equipment my company is acquiring will no longer have an Ethernet port. We currently have a ZTI imaging process and doing the imaging wirelessly is out of the question. The workaround will be to utilize a 'dongle'. The downside to this is once the imaging is completed, the record would need to be updated and the MAC Address be replaced with either a dummy MAC or the wireless MAC in order to be able to create a new SCCM record utilizing the 'dongles' MAC Address to be able to image a new device.
Options currently:
There is a VBScript that can be ran after the imaging process which will wait until the wireless comes online, then trigger a hardware refresh, but this will just add the wireless MAC and not remove the dongles.
Delete the record from SCCM then either rebuild it by scripts or let client create one when hardware inventory is triggered.
Looking to see if others have experienced this no Ethernet and what their solutions have been with using the dongles.
Thanks,
Edmound
