Intelligent Security with RADIUS provides consistent information and identification for all subscribers, equipment, applications, and data based on context and subscriber activity. To correlate user equipment (UE) information with more types of 4G/5G traffic, the firewall can now inspect RADIUS traffic for enforcement of subscriber-level and equipment-level security policy. Intelligent Security with RADIUS allows enterprises to expand their zero-trust architecture to subscribers and equipment on 5G networks.

Control and user plane separation (CUPS) architecture is a common configuration for networks undergoing transition from 4G/LTE to 5G; however, traffic inspection for both planes must be performed by the same firewall. User Equipment (UE) to IP Address Correlation with PFCP allows the firewall to extract user information and correlate it with the equipment ID or subscriber ID. It enables you to create granular security policies based on subscriber or equipment ID, as well as enhanced visibility through logging and reporting for applications and threats based on subscriber or equipment ID.
