A device, located in a core network associated with a radio access network (RAN), may include a processor configured to expose services or capabilities to application servers outside the core network, wherein the device is located in a core network associated with a radio access network (RAN). The processor may be further configured to receive a subscriber identifier message from a gateway device that established a connection to a user equipment (UE) device via the RAN, wherein the subscriber identifier message includes information identifying the UE device; receive a request from an application server associated with the connection for the information identifying the UE device; and provide the requested information identifying the UE device to the application server, in response to receiving the request from the application server.
