    Abstract: Bootstrapping a new remote appliance based on a request received at a main appliance based on established trust between the two appliances can be implemented as computer-implemented methods, media, and systems. A request is received at an authentication orchestrator at the main appliance to perform an operation requested by a user for execution on a remote appliance. The authentication orchestrator at the main appliance obtains an authentication token issued by an identity provider at the main appliance for the user associated with the request. The authentication orchestrator requests to exchange the authentication token issued by the identity provider at the main appliance for a new authentication token that is issued by an identity provider at the remote appliance. The authentication orchestrator at the main appliance initiates an authentication of the user at an appliance manager at the remote appliance based on providing the new authentication token.
