Method and device for embedded SIM provisioning
First Claim
1. A server device comprising:
- a first interface configured to transmit a request message for requesting a profile from a profile generation server, and to receive a plurality of packets associated with installation of the profile, in response to the request message;
a processor configured to generate an image file from the plurality of packets;
an authentication module configured to perform authentication with the profile generation server and authenticate an electronic device including an embedded SIM (eSIM); and
a second interface configured to transmit the image file to the electronic device, if the electronic device is authenticated.
