Sharing of network resources within a managed network

A system, comprising:

• a processor;
• and
• a memory that stores executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, facilitate performance of operations, comprising:
• obtaining network operator credentials associated with a first communications device, wherein network resources are accessible by the first communications device using the network operator credentials;
• receiving a request to allocate at least a portion of the network resources to a second communications device;
• forwarding a copy of the network operator credentials of the first communications device to the second communications device to enable the second communications device to access at least the portion of the network resources;
• and
• reallocating at least the portion of the network resources to the second communications device.

A machine-readable storage device, comprising instructions, wherein responsive to executing the instructions, a processor performs operations comprising:

• receiving a request to allocate at least a portion of network resources assigned to a first communications device to a second communications device;
• forwarding a copy of network operator credentials of the first communications device to the second communications device to enable the second communications device to access at least the portion of the network resources;
• and
• reallocating at least the portion of the network resources to the second communications device.
