Abstract

A carrier network may provide connection establishment and routing optimization for Service Capability Exposure Function (SCEF). For example, a Mobility Management Entity (MME) component may transmit, to a SCEF, a connection request to establish a session, the request using a first SCEF identifier (ID). The MME may receive, from a particular SCEF instance of the SCEF, an answer for the session, the answer including an identifier that is different from the first SCEF-ID, the identifier associated with the particular SCEF instance. The MME may transmit, to the particular SCEF instance, a subsequent message for the session, wherein a second SCEF-ID of the subsequent message is associated with the identifier and is different from the first SCEF-ID.
