Abstract

According to various embodiments, systems and methods disclosed herein can configure a profile of at least one NF of a 5G network to support a plurality of requester NF types, including the type of network repository function (NRF). The NF profile can be registered with the NRF of the 5G network. Such NF profile configurations and registrations enable the at least one NF to be discovered by discovery requests that use NRF or a consumer NF type as the requester NF type, thus increasing interoperability between the HPMN and roaming partners that use different requested NF types in their NF discovery requests.
