Abstract: Edge blockchain authentication for communications networks is disclosed. By using a blockchain approach instead of a conventional network function (NF) authentication approach, authentication for applications and services can be performed at an authenticating data center (ADC) without the need to involve the regional data center (RDC) and/or the national data center (NDC). Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) for individual NFs may not be needed. Once authenticated via the blockchain, legitimate transactions can interact with NFs.
