Abstract
A device can determine that a sender user equipment connected to a network has been authenticated. The device can cause another device associated with the network to provide configuration information to the sender user equipment after determining that the sender user equipment has been authenticated. The device can receive an RCS message from the sender user equipment after causing the other device to provide the configuration information. The device can determine a capability of a set of receiver user equipment utilizing capability information stored in a data structure. The device can selectively provide the RCS message to the set of receiver user equipment utilizing the non-IMS RCS messaging based on the capability of the set of receiver user equipment, or provide the RCS message to the set of receiver user equipment without utilizing the non-IMS RCS messaging based on the capability of the set of receiver user equipment.
