Abstract
In generating a pseudo terminal identifier (pseudo-ESN; pseudo-Electronic Serial Number), a pseudo terminal identifier generating method includes the steps of generating a first configuration code by hashing a mobile equipment identifier (MEID), selecting a second configuration code from codes not used as an electronic serial number (ESN), and generating the pseudo terminal identifier by setting MSB (most significant bit) to the first configuration code and by setting LSB (least significant bit) to the second configuration code. Accordingly, the present invention provides a pseudo terminal identifier after a related art ESN is exhausted.
