Abstract
An apparatus in an illustrative embodiment comprises at least one processing device comprising a processor coupled to a memory. The at least one processing device is configured to determine in a first node of a node network identifying information sufficient for tracking a user device that generates radio communications detectable by at least the first node, to replicate at least a portion of the identifying information from the first node to one or more additional nodes of the node network, and to track the user device utilizing the identifying information in the first node and the one or more additional nodes. Tracking the user device utilizing the identifying information in the first node and the one or more additional nodes illustratively comprises performing the tracking without requiring each of the first and additional nodes to pair with the user device. Other illustrative embodiments include methods and computer program products.
