Abstract
Initiating primary reauthentication of a communication device by a home network (UDM or AUSF) is provided. A trigger to initiate a primary reauthentication request of a communication device is detected. An authentication status of the subscription permanent identifier (SUPI) of the communication device is checked. Responsive to the authentication status of the SUPI being obsolete or null, a reauthentication message is transmitted towards an access and mobility management function (AMF) node. A reauthentication confirmation message is received. A determination is made as to whether to continue, abort, or postpone any steering of roaming (SoR) updates, any user equipment parameter updates (UPU updates) or any authentication and key agreement for applications (AKMA) procedures based on the reauthentication confirmation message.
