Abstract
Embodiments include methods performed by a client in an edge data network. Such methods include obtaining an initial access token before accessing the edge data network. The initial access token is based on an identifier of the client. Such methods include establishing a first connection with a server of the edge data network based on transport layer security (TLS) and authenticating the server based on a server certificate received from the server via the first connection. Such methods include providing the initial access token to the server, via the first connection, for authentication of the client. Other embodiments include complementary methods performed by a server in an edge data network, as well as apparatus (e.g., user equipment and servers) configured to perform such methods.
