Abstract
A method and an apparatus for allocating device identifiers is provided. The method includes receiving a first request, the first request comprising terminal device information and a user authentication password; the user authentication password being generated according to a second request sent before the first request; and generating a first device identifier corresponding to the terminal device using the user authentication password. The method and the apparatus can prevent the device identity from being falsified and improve security.
