Abstract

Examples relate to managing mutually exclusive access to network slices in a communications network. A unified data management (UDM) node implementing a UDM network function of the communications network receives, from a session management function (SMF) node, a session registration request for accessing a first network slice to which a user equipment (UE) seeks access. Responsive to receiving the session registration request, the UDM node determines whether the UE has an active session registration for a second network slice, The UDM further selectively rejects the session registration request for accessing the first network slice based on a policy in response to determining that the UE has the active session registration for the second network slice.
