Abstract

See full text

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication at a network entity are described. A user equipment (UE) may obtain identification information for a device and may assist in establishing credentials by which the device accesses a wireless network, e.g., a cellular network. The UE may establish a connection with the wireless network using its own credentials. A device subscription administration server, which may be an entity within the wireless network core, may authenticate the device based on the identification information, which may include registering the device to access the wireless network, e.g., using different credentials than those of the UE, by associating the device identification information with the credentials of the UE. Once registered, the device may communicate with the wireless network. The device subscription administration server may then establish access parameters and communicate them to the UE, which may transmit them to the device over communication link.
