Registration authentication based on a type of authentication procedure and a capability
Apparatuses, methods, and systems are disclosed for registration authentication based on a capability. One method includes receiving, at a second network device from a first network device, an indication for a capability for a registration. The method includes transmitting, to a third network device, a first request for a type of authentication procedure for the registration. The method includes transmitting, to a remote unit, a second request. The second request corresponds to the type of authentication procedure for the registration. The method includes receiving, from the remote unit, a response to the second request. The response corresponds to a stored credential in the remote unit.
1 . An apparatus for performing a network function, the apparatus comprising:
at least one memory; and
at least one processor coupled with the at least one memory and configured to cause the apparatus to:
receive, from a first network device, an indication that a registration request corresponds to a disaster condition or a limited roaming condition, wherein the indication includes a capability for performing a registration based on a stored credential;
transmit, to a third network device, a first request for a type of authentication procedure for the registration, wherein the type of authentication procedure corresponds to the disaster condition or the limited roaming condition;
transmit, to a remote unit, a second request, wherein the second request corresponds to the type of authentication procedure for the registration; and
receive, from the remote unit, a response to the second request, wherein the response corresponds to the stored credential in the remote unit that is used for authenticating the registration in an absence of a roaming interface between a home network and a visited network.
2 . The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the stored credential is updated by a fourth network device, and the fourth network device is in the disaster condition.
3 . The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the remote unit comprises a user equipment (UE).
4 . The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the first network device comprises an access and mobility management function (AMF).
5 . The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the apparatus comprises an authentication server function (AUSF).
6 . The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the third network device comprises a unified data management (UDM).
7 . The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the capability for the registration is an authentication protocol.
8 . A method of performing a network function, the method comprising:
receiving, from a first network device, an indication that a registration request corresponds to a disaster condition or a limited roaming condition, wherein the indication includes for a capability for performing a registration based on a stored credential;
transmitting, to a third network device, a first request for a type of authentication procedure for the registration, wherein the type of authentication procedure corresponds to the disaster condition or the limited roaming condition;
transmitting, to a user equipment (UE), a second request, wherein the second request corresponds to the type of authentication procedure for the registration; and
receiving, from the UE, a response to the second request, wherein the response corresponds to the stored credential in the UE that is used for authenticating the registration in an absence of a roaming interface between a home network and a visited network.
9 . A user equipment (UE), comprising:
at least one memory; and
at least one processor coupled with the at least one memory and configured to cause the UE to:
transmit, to a first network device, a registration request message comprising an indication that a registration request corresponds to a disaster condition or a limited roaming condition, wherein the indication includes for a capability for performing a registration based on a stored credential;
receive, from a second network device, a request, wherein the request corresponds to a type of authentication procedure for the registration, wherein the type of authentication procedure corresponds to the disaster condition or the limited roaming condition; and
transmit, to the second network device, a response to the request, wherein the response corresponds to the stored credential in the UE that is used for authenticating the registration in an absence of a roaming interface between a home network and a visited network.
10 . The UE of claim 9 , wherein the registration corresponds to a disaster condition.
11 . The UE of claim 10 , wherein the stored credential is updated by a fourth network device, and the fourth network device is in the disaster condition.
12 . The UE of claim 11 , wherein the fourth network device is an access and mobility management function (AMF) in a disaster condition.
13 . The UE of claim 9 , wherein the first network device comprises an access and mobility management function (AMF) and the second network device comprises an authentication server function (AUSF).
14 . A processor for wireless communication, comprising:
at least one controller coupled with at least one memory and configured to cause the processor to:
transmit, to a first network device, a registration request message comprising an indication that a registration request corresponds to a disaster condition or a limited roaming condition, wherein the indication includes for a capability for performing a registration based on a stored credential;
receive, from a second network device, a request, wherein the request corresponds to a type of authentication procedure for the registration, wherein the type of authentication procedure corresponds to the disaster condition or the limited roaming condition; and
transmit, to the second network device, a response to the request, wherein the response corresponds to the stored credential in the processor that is used for authenticating the registration in an absence of a roaming interface between a home network and a visited network.
15 . The processor of claim 14 , wherein the stored credential is updated by a fourth network device, and the fourth network device is in the disaster condition.
16 . The processor of claim 15 , wherein the fourth network device is an access and mobility management function (AMF) in a disaster condition.
17 . The processor of claim 14 , wherein the first network device comprises an access and mobility management function (AMF) and the second network device comprises an authentication server function (AUSF).
