A validation system includes a user equipment (UE) and a client server. The UE is configured to store a device identifier associated with the UE. In response to a first validation request triggered by an application program of the UE, the UE is configured to encrypt the device identifier to generate an ephemeral token having a token value that is representative of the device identifier, transmit the first validation request including the ephemeral token, receive a first validation response based on the first validation request, and provide the first validation response to the application program. The client server is configured to receive the first validation request, transmit a second validation request, including the ephemeral token, for validation of the ephemeral token, receive a second validation response based on the ephemeral token included in the second validation request, and generate the first validation response based on the second validation response.

Systems and methods for ephemeral token-based device identifier detection

Systems and methods described herein use group segmentation of applications (referred to herein as 'slicing classes'), based on common service requirements, to allow carriers to assign UE traffic to network slices. A UE stores slicing class definitions for use with UE Route Selection Policies (URSP). Each of the slicing class definitions include network quality of service (QoS) characteristics that are applicable to network traffic for multiple software applications. The UE maps the software applications to corresponding slicing class identifiers associated with the slicing class definitions. The UE also stores URSP rules for associating a slicing class identifier with a network slice identifier. A UE operating system sends, to a modem, one of the slicing class identifiers for an application that is requesting attachment to a wireless network. The modem sends a registration request with a selected network slice identifier based on the received slicing class identifier and the URSP rules.

Systems and methods of application mapping for network slicing using group segmentation

A method may include receiving identification information associated with a user device and determining whether the user device is associated with a new order or an upgrade order associated with a wireless service provider. The method may also include activating an order in response to determining that the user device is associated with an upgrade order and identifying address information of a network device associated with obtaining a subscriber identity module (SIM) profile for the user device. The method may further include forwarding the address information to the user device, receiving, by the network device, a request from the user device for the SIM profile and transmitting, by the network device, the SIM profile to the user device.
