A URN Namespace for Device Identity and Mobile Equipment Identity
RFC 8464, “A URN Namespace for Device Identity and Mobile Equipment Identity”, is an Informational document published in September 2018 by R. Atarius. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
This document defines a Uniform Resource Name (URN) namespace for the Third Generation Partnership Project 2 (3GPP2) and a Namespace Specific String (NSS) for the Mobile Equipment Identity (MEID). The structure of an MEID is 15 hexadecimal digits long and is defined in the 3GPP2 to uniquely identify each individual mobile equipment (e.g., a handset or mobile phone). The 3GPP2 has a requirement to be able to use an MEID as a URN. This document fulfills that requirement.
