Abstract
Techniques for implementing a network slice selection function are described. In one example aspect, a network slice instance request message is received for a user device. In response, the network slice selection function transmits a response message that includes information about allowed network slice instances for the user device. The allowed network slice instances include network slice instances that are available in the registration area of the user device.
