How To Find the IP Address of a Windows 10 IoT Core Device

Posted by Mike Branstein on Aug 19, 2016 12:37:45 PM

KiZAN has a lab of 26 Raspberry Pi 2 boards running Windows 10 IoT core. On a regular basis, we need to re-flash, provision, and configure the boards. When we perform the re-flash and provisioning process, it is manual, and consumes more time than we want to spend (up to 2 days).  Truth be told, we don't have 2 days of free time, so we decided to invest in automation.

Once the entire re-flash and provisioning process was automated, we hoped to reduce the time spent to under 2 hours. Yeah, from 2 days to 2 hours. You do the math. This post is one of a series of posts describing our automation efforts for provisioning Windows 10 IoT Core on the Raspberry Pi 2.
