Embodiment Construction

[0027] In the ensuing discussion, reference may be made below to specific elements numbered according to the figures. The following discussion should be regarded as exemplary in nature and not as limiting the scope of the technology detailed. The scope of these techniques is defined in the claims and should not be considered limited by the implementation details described below, which can be modified by substituting functionally equivalent elements for elements as those skilled in the art will appreciate These implementation details.

[0028] This disclosure uses both the term "M2M device" and the term "wireless device". The term "M2M device" is sometimes used by those skilled in the art to refer to a logical entity as opposed to a physical entity. Of course, in practice this logical entity is embodied in a physical device. Accordingly, as used herein, the term "M2M device" should be understood to refer to a logical entity embodied in a physical device, such as a 3GPP compl...

Abstract

Techniques for automatically transferring an external identifier for a wireless device from a wireless communication network serving the wireless device to a service provider external to the wireless communication network are disclosed. In an example method, carried out in one or more nodes of the wireless communication network, a binding between the external identifier and an internal identifier for the wireless device is maintained. A data session for the wireless device and corresponding to the service provider is established, wherein said establishing includes an assignment of an IP address to the wireless device. A request for the external identifier is received from the service provider, said request including the IP address for the wireless device. The external identifier is then sent to the service provider, in response to the request.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates generally to wireless communication networks and service provider networks external to such wireless communication networks, and in particular to methods in wireless communication networks for providing external identifiers for devices to service provider networks external to wireless communication networks. Technology for Service Provider Networks. Background technique [0002] In an environment where a Machine-to-Machine (M2M) device is connected to an M2M Service Provider (SP) through an access network provided by another entity, the M2M Service Provider is effectively A service layer is created on top, and this service layer is used to deliver services to M2M devices. However, in order for a service provider to identify a device on the network, it is required that the service provider network and the access network agree on at least one identifier to be used to reach the M2M device. In the M2M framework developed by...
