A base station may cause a user equipment (UE) to be connected to a network, wherein an attach request message, that is used to connect the UE to the network, includes one or more eligibility parameters for a connection release service. The base station may determine, based on the one or more eligibility parameters, that the UE is to receive the connection release service. The base station may provide, to the UE, a connection release message that is provided based on determining that the UE is to receive the connection release service. The base station may receive, from the UE, a connection release acknowledgement message that indicates that the connection release message has been received by the UE. The base station may perform one or more actions associated with changing a state of the UE based on receiving the connection release acknowledgement message.
