Abstract
A system and method for reducing congestion in onboarding networks before onboarding and provisioning connections are made by user equipment (UE), and for reducing congestion in onboarding networks after attempts are made by UEs to make connections to onboarding networks for onboarding and provisioning which result in network congestion. Broadcast information (referred to herein as 'onboarding access control information') from a radio access network (RAN) to user equipment (UE) is used in order to guide onboarding UEs to detect and access the right onboarding network to prevent unnecessary network access attempts by UEs which are not authorized to access an onboarding network for onboarding.
