Abstract: A system described herein may provide for multiple levels of authentication, such that a User Equipment (“UE”) may receive secure content from an application server, which may include or may be implemented by a multi-access edge computing (“MEC”) system. As described herein, a user associated with a UE may register the UE and/or a particular application with an authentication system and/or the application server. The registration of the UE and/or the application may establish a “trust” relationship between the authentication system and the UE, such that a user-level authentication performed by the UE, such as biometric authentication, may be accepted by the authentication system and/or the application system as an authentication of the user.

Abstract: A network device may determine, based on a provisioning request to host an application platform, a configuration of resources of a network for maintaining the application platform within the network. The network device may provision the resources to permit access to the application platform via a domain. The network device may receive, from a user device, a domain request that includes the domain, wherein the domain request is associated with configuring an application session between an application of the user device and the application platform. The network device may provide, to the user device, a response that includes an address of a host resource of the application platform, wherein the host resource is one of the resources. The network device may receive, from the user device, a session request that includes the address and may establish the application session between the user device and the host resource.

Abstract: A method, a network device, and a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium are described in relation to an intelligent secure access for SIM-less end device service. The intelligent secure access for SIM-less end device service may include providing authentication and/or authorization of SIM-less end devices and an intermediary network device or intermediary customer premises equipment. The intelligent secure access for SIM-less end device service may include validation of an identity of the SIM-less devices and the intermediary network device or intermediary customer premises equipment as well as applications of the SIM-less devices for access and use of an application service layer network.

Abstract: An application client on a user device obtains an authorization token from the computing platform that hosts one or more edge application devices, initiates an edge discovery request to the computing platform using the authorization token, and, in response to the edge discovery request, receives connection information of a particular edge application device among the one or more edge application devices. The application client establishes a connection between the application client and the particular edge application device using the connection information.

Abstract: An application client on a user device receives an internal request from within the application client. The internal request is associated with edge application device(s) hosted by a computing platform. In response to the internal request, the application client obtains an authorization token from the computing platform and initiates an edge discovery request to the computing platform using the authorization token. In response to the edge discovery request, the application client receives connection information of a particular edge application device among the edge application device(s) that is identified for the application client by the computing platform. The application client establishes a connection between the application client and the particular edge application device using the connection information of the particular edge application device.

Abstract: A device may receive, from a user equipment, a token request associated with an application, wherein the token request is associated with a device identifier. The device may generate a device token for the application and the user equipment. The device may provide, using the device identifier, the device token to the user equipment to enable a user to access the application via an application platform. The device may receive, from the application platform, a slice request for a network slice of a network that is to be used for an application session. The device may determine that the user equipment is associated with the application session based on the device token and the device identifier. The device may configure a network slice instance of the network slice. The device may determine a user equipment route selection policy for the application session according to the network slice instance.
