Abstract
Apparatuses, methods, and systems are disclosed for disabling a pending NSSAI. One method includes receiving, from a lower layer, a first indication of a radio link failure event, wherein the radio link failure event occurs during an authentication procedure of a network slice, and wherein the radio link failure event corresponds to unavailable cell coverage and disabling a pending NSSAI associated with network slice based at least in part on the radio link failure event. The method includes receiving, from the lower layer and after disabling the pending NSSAI, a second indication indicating available cell coverage and transmitting a registration request for the network slice in response to the available cell coverage, wherein the registration request comprises a requested NSSAI, and wherein the request NSSAI comprises a S-NSSAI associated with the pending NSSAI.
