If I am not mistaken, you should have some bolt on tabs for strapping down along the sides no? If not, you should have gotten them Triton does a good job designing a product for ATV's and Snowmobiles. Depending on what you buy, you will either get their track system, which you can then adapt lugs or hooks to (in their catalog) or in the case of the ATV trailers, they have slots along the sides for sideways mounting. either way, you need to look in their catalogs for your solutions.
I really like their product line, but they are slightly expensive, and if I have one negative to say about them, they build them with too light carrying capacity. The owner is not real willing to upgrade axles to workable numbers either. For example, I want one of their 32 ft x101s. But it comes with tiny wheels and tires, and a load capacit just over 4100 lbs. And that is with 3 axles. I want to upgrade to 14 inch wheels, but he won't budge on bigger axles. I can get 8 or 9 full size ATVs on that trailer deck. You multiply 8 times 700 and you will quckly see that I would be way overloaded. Hence, I have not made a purchase. My only other option is a trailer designed to haul heavy equipment. Which is OK with me, and I get the bigger tires and load capacity I need... But I still would rather have that aluminum one...

Yes it has the tabs but i was trying to find the best place to hook the straps to the atv's. The trailer rides great and with the two sportsman's there was no issue with weight. With the ramps and side loading life is easy.

Scroll down on this forum. It has been well discussed. I went with the Tire Bonnets, and E-Track system It works great. It does cost more than hardware store ratchet straps, but has never came loose, and looks great on the trailer too.

I don't have that trailer, but I got some D rings like in the first reply from Home Depot. I didn't want to cut that deep into my deck (those things are really thick), so I returned them and got some like this, which work great.

If you are getting straps too, I'd highly recommend the endless ratchet type. Not having hooks is nice. They can pop off, not fit over what you are trying to ancor them to, and eventually the plastic coating gives out and they scratch things.
As far as where to attach to the ATV, Honda recommends using only the racks, but they are heavy steel, so that might not apply to other brands.
