transmit to the communication system information about the another user equipment;

transmit a request to the communication system to authorize the access of the another user equipment to the communication system;

receive from the communication system information enabling the authorized access of the another user equipment; and

transmit using the device-to-device connection to the another user equipment the information, wherein the another user equipment does not have a subscriber identity module.

7. The apparatus of claim 6 , wherein the at least one memory and the computer program code is configured with the at least one processor to cause the apparatus to:

request an additional Enhanced Packet Core connection to be set up for the another user equipment.

8. The apparatus of claim 6 , wherein the at least one memory and the computer program code is configured with the at least one processor to cause the apparatus to:

request an access token for the another user equipment, the access token comprising an authorized configuration profile including needed access parameters, restrictions or limitations, guidelines the another user equipment can use to access the communication system.

9. The apparatus of claim 6 , wherein the at least one memory and the computer program code is configured with the at least one processor to cause the apparatus to:

request an access token for the another user equipment, the access token comprising authentication related parameters so that device can use those authentication/security related information to access the network.

10. A method, comprising:

communicating, by a first user equipment, with a communication system, the first user equipment being an authentic and authorized user equipment to the communication system;

storing on the first user equipment, by the first user equipment, authentication information of the first user equipment to the communication system for another user equipment which has not been authorized access by the communication system;

using a device-to-device communication link form device pairing of the first user equipment and the another user equipment;

using the authentication information stored on the first user equipment, communicating with the communication system to cause the communication system to authorize the access of the another user equipment to the communication system based on the device pairing with the first user equipment using the device-to-device communication link.

11. The method of claim 10 , further comprising

registering a sub-user relationship with the another user equipment at the communication system;

receiving a request from the communication system to authorize the access of the another user equipment to the communication system; and

transmitting a response to the request to the communication system.

12. The method of claim 11 , further comprising

receiving the request and transmit the response using application service.

13. The method of claim 10 , further comprising

transmitting a request to the communication system to authorize the access of the another user equipment to the communication system.

14. The method of claim 10 , further comprising

receiving a request from the communication system to authorize the access of the another user equipment to the communication system; and

transmit a response to the request to the communication system.

15. The method of claim 10 , further comprising

transmitting to the communication system information about the another user equipment;

transmitting a request to the communication system to authorize the access of the another user equipment to the communication system;

receiving from the communication system information enabling the authorized access of the another user equipment; and

transmitting using the device-to-device connection to the another user equipment the information, wherein the another user equipment does not have a subscriber identity module.

16. The method of claim 15 , further comprising

requesting an additional Enhanced Packet Core connection to be set up for the another user equipment.

17. The method of claim 15 , further comprising

requesting an. access token for the another user equipment, the access token comprising an authorized configuration profile including needed access parameters, restrictions or limitations, guidelines the another user equipment can use to access the communication system.

18. A method, comprising:

communicating in a communication system with a second user equipment of the communication system, wherein the second user equipment is allowed access to the communication system based on authentication information of the second user equipment;

based on the communicating, storing on the second user equipment authentication information of the second user equipment for a first user equipment which has not been authorized access by the communication system;

using a device-to-device communication link form device pairing of the second user equipment and the first user equipment; and

allowing access of the first user equipment to the communication system, the access being authorized using the authentication information stored on the second user equipment provided by the second user equipment and stored on the first user equipment during the communicating, wherein the access is based on the device the pairing with the first user equipment using the device-to-device communication link.

19. The method of claim 18 , wherein the communicating comprises:

receiving from the first user equipment a request to access the communication system;

transmitting an request to the second user equipment to authorize the access of the first user equipment
