Abstract

According to certain embodiments, a method in a wireless device comprises detecting system information broadcast from a network node. The system information comprises a list of Non-Public Network (NPN) identifiers identifying a plurality of NPNs. The method comprises selecting a network from the plurality of NPNs and determining an index value associated with the selected network. When the NPN identifier associated with the selected network comprises a Closed Access Group (CAG) identifier, determining the index value is based at least partially on Public Land Mobile Network (PLMN) elements included in combination with at least one CAG identifier in the list of NPN identifiers. When the NPN identifier associated with the selected network comprises a Network Identifier (NID), determining the index value is based at least partially on a number of NIDs included in the list of NPN identifiers.
