Cool story if everything you have has an API or code based. Try doing it on hundreds of switches and other embedded devices. The whole 42 day thing they’re floating is gonna be a massive nightmare because they don’t realize all the other things out there that use certificates.
What makes you think I don’t do this on embedded devices? I’m not about to dox my self with specifics, but I do this exclusively for embedded hardware as my job. We even do it for devices not directly attached to our network. It’s really not difficult so long as you have control of your enterprise hardware (which, you should, unless your management is terrible at their jobs). Hell, even the routers we use have this functionality built in, failure alarms and all.
If this is a problem for you, it’s probably at an organizational level, and not a technical issue.
