Abstract: The evolution of 5G networks marks a transformative shift in communication technologies, paving the way for a vast range of applications in the Internet of Things (IoT), smart cities, and beyond. A crucial component of this transition is the efficient and secure management of the ever-growing number of devices that are part of these networks. As the number of connected devices increases exponentially, traditional device management protocols face challenges in scalability, security, and interoperability. This paper explores the next-generation device management protocols designed for 5G and beyond, examining their architecture, capabilities, and the innovations that they bring to the table. The manuscript investigates the role of these protocols in ensuring reliable device onboarding, monitoring, configuration, and lifecycle management while addressing the limitations of current standards. We also evaluate their performance and suggest the potential evolution of device management in upcoming wireless communication systems.
