Various examples described herein provide for a management processor that reads a registration script from a peripheral device, and uses the script to act in proxy to register the peripheral device as a data provider on the management processor. Once a peripheral device is registered as a data provider on the management processor, the management processor can permit the peripheral device to host a management resource on the management processor. By accessing the hosted management resource through the management processor, a client can manage, monitor, or control the peripheral device.
