Testing EAP-AKA with a real USIM card will likely require you to have a
test card or access to an operator authentication server. These cards
are designed to make it difficult for the private parameters to be
extracted..

You can run through EAP-AKA regardless of what identify is used in
EAP-Response/Identity, so this does not really matter in that sense.
However, the most common use cases for EAP-AKA do use a specific format
that starts with 0/2/4 prefix.
