In one aspect, a method includes receiving a Radio Resource Control (RRC) message from the IAB node; determining, based on the RRC message, a new random access channel (RACH) configuration; and in response to determining the new RACH configuration, initiating a random access procedure with the IAB node using the new RACH configuration.
