Zusammenfassung:Presented herein are techniques in which a network device obtains a request from an Internet of Things (IoT) device to access a wireless wide area (WWA) access network. The request includes a token and an identifier associated with the IoT device. The network device transmits a verification request to an IoT vendor associated with the IoT device to determine whether the token and the identifier are valid and obtains an indication from the IoT vendor that the token and the identifier are valid. The network device facilitates connection of the IoT device to the WWA access network based on obtaining the indication that the token and the identifier are valid.
