How does Session object resolve user identity?

[Anthony Mak]

How does the session know which user is accessing it? Does it resolves the user identity by IP address or cookie or IP address plus port number ... etc? The problem is in mobile phones in Japan, cookie is not allowed. Also, there is usually a gateway hiding the server, so all user will have same IP address ( but they will have different port number) and if session resolve by IP address only, then users will have access to other users session object.
