Abstract

Peering within a mobile network is facilitated. In one example, a method includes: generating, by a requesting device including a processor, a peer group between the requesting device and at least one target device over a wireless communication network. The method also includes obtaining virtual access, by the requesting device, to an aspect of the target device based on the generating, wherein the generating is based on successful authentication of the requesting device and the target device. The method also includes displaying, by the requesting device, information indicative of the aspect of the service to which the target device is subscribed. In some cases, the aspect of the target device includes a service to which the target device is subscribed. The service can share data retrieved at a location of the target device with the requesting device.
