Applicability of policies for wireless communication

An apparatus for wireless communication, comprising:

• a processing system configured to select at least one policy for routing of data traffic to a network, wherein the at least one policy comprise an access network discovery and selection policy (ANDSP) if the apparatus has the ANDSP provisioned regardless of whether the apparatus is registered to evolved packet core (EPC) or fifth-generation core network (5GCN);
• and
• a transceiver configured to communicate the data traffic to the network based on the selection.

A computer-readable medium having instructions stored thereon to cause an apparatus to:

• select at least one policy for routing of data traffic to a network, wherein the at least one policy comprise an access network discovery and selection policy (ANDSP) if the apparatus has the ANDSP provisioned regardless of whether the apparatus is registered to evolved packet core (EPC) or fifth-generation core network (5GCN);
• and
• communicate the data traffic to the network based on the selection.
