A network device receives parameters associated with a usage profile of at least one Internet of Things (IoT) device, where the usage profile specifies a data usage pattern associated with the at least one IoT device transmitting or receiving data via a wireless network. The network device generates a device behavior profile based on the parameters associated with the usage profile, and causes the device behavior profile and an application to be sent to the at least one IoT device, where the application controls the at least one IoT device's transmission or reception via the wireless network using the device behavior profile.

IoT devices wireless network connectivity policy management

A method including determining whether a subscriber identification profile (SIDP) is stored within a UE; sending an initial attach request along with a default network access key to a MME, upon determining that the SIDP is not stored; receiving a first authorization in response to the initial attach request, the first authorization restricts connectivity of the UE to an M2M activation system accessed by a dedicated APN associated with the default network access key; receiving, from a subscription management system, a SIDP generated by the M2M activation system; detaching from the M2M activation system and the network; sending a second attach request to the network based on the received SIDP; and receiving a second authorization to the network in response to the second attach request; the second authorization provides unrestricted APN connectivity and access to services associated with the subscriber identification profile.

Dedicated APN access using default network access key for profile download

An embedded Universal Integrated Circuit Card ('eUICC') controller may transfer wireless network service between different User Equipment ('UE') by moving or exchanging one or more profiles between the eUICC of different UEs. The eUICC controller may directly access the eUICC of the UEs in order to control eUICC profile synchronization, disabling, downloading, and/or perform other eUICC management.

Systems and methods for transferring SIM profiles between eUICC devices

Systems and methods enable remote machine-to-machine device SIM profile management without requiring a mobile terminated SMS wake-up message. A network device stores multiple profile orders for secure elements of end devices and receives an unsolicited profile query from a secure element of an end device. The secure element includes a pre-loaded power-on connection application that automatically initiates an HTTP connection with the network device when the end device is powered on or wakes up from a sleep mode, and the unsolicited profile query includes a secure element identifier. The network device conducts a search to match the secure element identifier from the unsolicited profile query with one of the multiple profile orders for the secure elements and sends profile action instructions to the secure element when there is a match between the secure element identifier from the unsolicited profile query and the one of the multiple profile orders.

Power on pulling for M2M SIM profile downloads

A method including determining whether a subscriber identification profile (SIDP) is stored within a UE; sending an initial attach request along with a default network access key to a MME, upon determining that the SIDP is not stored; receiving a first authorization to attach to the network in response to the initial attach request, the first authorization restricts connectivity of the UE to an M2M activation system accessed by a dedicated APN associated with the default network access key; receiving, from a subscription management system, a SIDP generated by the M2M activation system; detaching from the M2M activation system and the network; sending a second attach request to the network based on the received SIDP; and receiving a second authorization to the network in response to the second attach request; the second authorization provides unrestricted APN connectivity and access to services associated with the subscriber identification profile.
