Approaches may be used for enabling coordinated identity management between an operator-managed mobile edge platform (MEP) and an external network. A token may be generated in the MEP that may associate a mobile network identity and an external network identity. The token may be negotiated on a per-session basis or on a per-wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) identity (WTRU-ID) basis. In an example method performed by a WTRU camped on a small cell network covered by the MEP, an enterprise bring your own device (BYOD) client (EBC) application may establish a secure link with an enterprise BYOD agent (EBA) application running on the MEP using an initial connection procedure. The EBC application may initiate an application-level authentication procedure with an enhanced evolved packet core (EPC) network. The EBC application may generate and provide a token to the EBA application via the established secure link.
