Event Based eUICC Fall-Back

摘要

A radio device in a communication network comprises an embedded Universal Integrated Circuit Card. The radio device stores a device fall-back policy based on a fall-back policy message received from a connectivity service platform that is separate from the radio device and in the communication network. The radio device receives, from the connectivity service platform, an event message indicating disablement, deactivation, or termination of a subscription of the radio device with a network operator. The event message is received from the connectivity service platform via a wireless network connection of the subscription. Responsive to determining that the radio device will lose the wireless network connection of the subscription due to the disablement, deactivation, or termination, the radio device obtains a different wireless network connection for the radio device using a different subscription by falling back in accordance with the stored fall-back policy.
