Abstract

A first network is associated with a core network node. The first network is associated with a set of RAN nodes, each RAN node supporting a set of cells. The first network comprises partitioned sets of functionalities, wherein a first set of functionalities belongs to a first network slice supporting the wireless device. The first set of functionalities is separated from another set of functionalities out of a total set of functionalities in the first network. When handling a mobility procedure in a communication network, the wireless device receives a message comprising an indication of one or more network slices supported by each cell of the RAN nodes from a network node and selects a cell for camping on, based on the indication received from the network node, wherein the indication indicates that the cell supports the first slice associated with the wireless device.
