I am running into an issue with Wifi during deployments. When the Mac is first booted and prompts for which wifi connection to use, we connect to the Corporate WiFi, which prompts for our credentials, and connects. During the JAMF deployment we push a profile for the same WiFi SSID. When that happens the WiFi gets disconnected and does not automatically reconnect, so the JAMF deployment fails.
If I connect the Mac to a different WiFi SSID from the beginning, the JAMF deployment is successful without issue. So, my guess is that when that WiFi profile is sent to the Mac with te same SSID it is disconnecting and causing the issue, but I wanted to verify if anyone else is having the same issue.

Yes that is normal behavior.
If possible use an "enrollment" SSID split off from your actual network that only connects to the appropriate services then push the standard profile.
We use a hidden SSID for "setup" and push a policy for the "standard" SSID.
is there a restriction on wifi for that pre staging?
Awesome. Thanks for the responses!
