Abstract:
A method for receiving profile information by a terminal in a communication system according to an embodiment of the present disclosure to solve the above-described problem comprises the steps of: transmitting, to a predetermined server, a first request message including an identifier related to the terminal and information related to a standby server; transmitting, to the standby server, a second request message including identifier information related to the terminal; and receiving, from the standby server, a first response message including server information for profile reception. According to the embodiment of the present disclosure, it is possible to effectively carry out an opening of an eUICC terminal and a device change, and flexibly manage a transfer server for profile download. In addition, it is possible to flexibly install and manage a communication provider's remote installation of a profile in the eUICC terminal.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to a communication method and system for converging a 5th-Generation (5G) communication system for supporting higher data rates beyond a 4th-Generation (4G) system with a technology for Internet of Things (IoT). The present disclosure may be applied to intelligent services based on the 5G communication technology and the IoT-related technology, such as smart home, smart building, smart city, smart car, connected car, health care, digital education, smart retail, security and safety services. A method and an apparatus of a server in a communication system are provided. The method includes receiving identifier information of a user equipment (UE), obtaining, if an error is detected for a first authentication key corresponding to the identifier information, information on a second authentication key for authenticating the UE, and authenticating the UE based on the information on the second authentication key. The server includes a transceiver configured to communicate with at least one of a network node and an external server, and a controller configured to receive identifier information of a UE, if an error is detected for a first authentication key corresponding to the identifier information, obtain information on a second authentication key for authenticating the UE, and authenticate the UE based on the information on the second authentication key.
Abstract:
