Abstract

Systems, devices, methods, and non-transitory, machine-readable media for uniquely identifying user equipment with a wireless network may include one or a combination of the following. A cellular network core may include a user plane function (UPF). The UPF may collect and store subscription permanent identifier (SUPI) information and/or generic public subscription identifier (GPSI) information corresponding to user equipment (UE) having an IP address. In response to a request, the cellular network core may execute a conditional process based at least in part on the UPF using the SUPI information and/or the GPSI information as part of the conditional process to respond to the request. The request may be for GPSI information corresponding to the UE. An external IP address of the UE may be provided along with the request. Upon completion of the conditional process, the cellular network core may return the GPSI information corresponding to the UE.
