In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the network subscription data obtaining device may further receive second terminal authentication data for authenticating the terminal by the current network, and authenticate the terminal based on the second terminal authentication data. The second terminal authentication data is for example a current network credential.
In this embodiment, if the terminal stores the subscription information of the current network, the terminal may be verified.

In some embodiments, the network subscription data acquisition device is located in a first network, the data storage server is located in a second network, and the authentication server and the subscription information query server are located in a third network. The first network, the second network and the third network may be the same network or different networks. For example, the first Network is, for example, SNPN (Stand-alone Non-Public Network), PLMN (Public Land Mobile Network), PNI-NPN (Public Network Integrated Non-Public Network), etc., the second Network is, for example, a private factory Network, a terminal manufacturer Network, SNPN, PNI-NPN, etc., and the third Network is, for example, a terminal manufacturer Network, SNPN, PNI-NPN, PLMN, etc.
In the embodiment shown in fig. 6 and 8, the first network where the network subscription Data acquiring device is located is, for example, SNPN1, and the SNPN1 includes an Access and Mobility Management Function (AMF) and a Unified Data Management Function (UDM). The second network where the data storage server is located is, for example, SNPN2, and the third network where the authentication server and the subscription information inquiry server are located is, for example, the terminal manufacturer's own network. The terminal owns the manufacturer Identifier, the manufacturer digital certificate, the Permanent Equipment Identifier (PEI). The user of the terminal has a contract with the SNPN2, and the data storage server of the SNPN2 stores the contract data of the terminal in the SNPN 2. The terminal does not have subscription information of the SNPN1 and the SNPN2, and does not know which SNPN the terminal has subscribed to.
The embodiment shown in fig. 6 includes the following steps 610-680. The corresponding network architecture of this embodiment is shown in fig. 7.
At step 610, the terminal sends the manufacturer identifier, manufacturer digital certificate, PEI to the AMF of SNPN 1.
At step 620, the AMF of SNPN1 selects a manufacturer authentication server based on the manufacturer identifier.
At step 630, the AMF of SNPN1 sends the manufacturer digital certificate to the authentication server.
The authentication server verifies that the terminal is a legitimate terminal based on the manufacturer certificate in step 640.
At step 650, the AMF of SNPN1 sends subscription data retrieval signaling to the UDM of SNPN 1.
At step 660, the UDM of SNPN1 selects a manufacturer subscription information query server based on the manufacturer identifier and sends the terminal PEI to the subscription information query server.
In step 670, the subscription information query server queries that the terminal has subscribed to SNPN2 through PEI, and then sends the SNPN2 identifier to the UDM of SNPN 1.
In this embodiment, the data storage server address or identifier of SNPN2 may also be sent to the UDM of SNPN 1.
At step 680, the UDM of SNPN1 selects the data storage server of SNPN2 based on the SNPN2 identifier, retrieves the subscription data for the terminal at SNPN2 from it and sends it to the terminal.

At step 850, the AMF of the SNPN1 selects a manufacturer contract information inquiry server according to the manufacturer identifier, and transmits a terminal PEI to the contract information inquiry server.
In step 860, the contract information inquiry server inquires that the terminal has contracted the SNPN2 through the PEI, and then sends the data storage server address of the SNPN2 to the AMF of the SNPN 1.
At step 870, the AMF of SNPN1 gives the terminal the data storage server address of SNPN 2.
In step 880, the terminal establishes a connection with the data storage server of SNPN2 in SNPN1 via the data storage server address of SNPN2 and retrieves the subscription data for the terminal at SNPN2 therefrom.
In the embodiments shown in fig. 6 and 8, the current network retrieves the network information signed by the terminal from the manufacturer network, and then retrieves the subscription data of the terminal from the terminal signed network, which can solve the problem that the terminal does not have the subscription information of SNPN1 and SNPN2, and does not know which SNPN the terminal signs up to, so that the subscription data cannot be obtained.
Fig. 10 is a flowchart illustrating a network subscription data acquisition method according to another embodiment of the disclosure. The first network where the network subscription data acquisition device is located is, for example, a PLMN, and includes an AMF, a UDM, and an Authentication Server Function (AUSF). The second network where the data storage server is located is for example a private factory network.

The user of the terminal has signed an agreement with both the PLMN and the private factory network, and the terminal can only access the private factory network through a specific slice in the PLMN, for which PLMN subscription data and credentials and private factory network credentials need to be provided. The terminal has a manufacturer identifier, a manufacturer digital certificate, PEI, PLMN subscription data and a certificate, but the terminal does not have the certificate of the private factory network and does not know which private factory network the terminal subscribes to. The corresponding network architecture of this embodiment is shown in fig. 11.
In step 1010, the terminal sends the PLMN AMF a manufacturer identifier, a manufacturer digital certificate, PEI, PLMN credentials.
In step 1020, the AMF of the PLMN verifies the terminal as a valid terminal according to the PLMN credential through AUSF in the PLMN.
At step 1030, the AMF of the PLMN sends subscription data retrieval signaling to the UDM of the PLMN.
In step 1040, the UDM of the PLMN selects a manufacturer subscription information query server according to the manufacturer identifier, and sends the terminal PEI and the manufacturer digital certificate to the subscription information query server.
In step 1050, the subscription information querying server verifies that the terminal is a valid terminal according to the manufacturer digital certificate through the manufacturer authentication server.
In step 1060, the contract information query server retrieves the certificate of the terminal in the private factory network from the data storage server of the private factory network according to the PEI and the contract information of the terminal.
In step 1070, the subscription information query server sends the credentials of the private factory network to the UDM of the PLMN.
The UDM of the PLMN sends the terminal's credentials at the private factory network to the terminal in step 1080.
In the above embodiments, the terminal is able to acquire the subscription data through the network, and the terminal does not need to provide the network with information of the network it subscribes to.
