Abstract
An apparatus, method, system and computer-readable medium are provided for provisioning a user equipment device (UED). The UED may be configured to receive a generic configuration and (dynamically) derive settings specific to the UED that would otherwise have been received in the configuration. The UED may execute one or more applications to derive the settings specific to the UED. A first application may enable the UED to dynamically learn a fully qualified domain name (FQDN) and IP address of a node. A second application may enable the UED to generate authentication credentials for the UED. A third application may enable the UED to determine a port or ports that are authorized for service and a port or ports that are not authorized for service. A fourth application may enable the UED to determine a number associated with the UED.
