## Abstract

Apparatuses, methods, and systems are disclosed for disabling analytics information of a network analytics function. One method includes transmitting, from an operation and management system, information indicating to disable analytics information of a network analytics function from use by at least one network function that is subscribed to the analytics information. The information indicating to disable the analytics information of the network analytics function includes: instructions corresponding to the network data analytics function; instructions corresponding to the at least one network function; a data identifier based on the analytics information; an analytics information type corresponding to the analytics information; an identifier or a type of the analytics information; a time interval or time window corresponding to the analytics information; instructions corresponding to a network slice instance; instructions corresponding to a single network slice selection assistance information; and/or instructions corresponding to a network slice subnet instance.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A method of an operation and management system, the method comprising:
transmitting information indicating to disable analytics information of a network analytics function from use by at least one network function that is subscribed to the analytics information;
wherein the information indicating to disable the analytics information of the network analytics function comprises:
instructions corresponding to the network data analytics function;
instructions corresponding to the at least one network function;
a data identifier based on the analytics information;
an identifier of the analytics information or an identifier of a type of the analytics information;
an analytics information type corresponding to the analytics information;
a time interval or time window corresponding to the analytics information;
instructions corresponding to a network slice instance;
instructions corresponding to a single network slice selection assistance information;
instructions corresponding to a network slice subnet instance;
or some a combination thereof.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The method of claim 1, further comprising receiving feedback corresponding to the information indicating to disable the analytics information.

### Claim 3

An apparatus comprising:
a processor; and
a memory coupled to the processor, the memory comprising instructions executable by the processor to cause the apparatus to:
transmit information indicating to disable analytics information of a network analytics function from use by at least one network function that is subscribed to the analytics information;
wherein the information indicating to disable the analytics information of the network analytics function comprises:
instructions corresponding to the network data analytics function;
instructions corresponding to the at least one network function;
a data identifier based on the analytics information;
an identifier of the analytics information or an identifier of a type of the analytics information;
an analytics information type corresponding to the analytics information;
a time interval or time window corresponding to the analytics information;
instructions corresponding to a network slice instance;
instructions corresponding to a single network slice selection assistance information;
instructions corresponding to a network slice subnet instance;
or a combination thereof.

### Claim 4 (depends on 3)

The apparatus of claim 3, wherein the instructions are further executable by the processor to cause the apparatus to receive feedback corresponding to the information indicating to disable the analytics information.

### Claim 5 (depends on 3)

The apparatus of claim 3, wherein the information indicating to disable the analytics information of the network analytics function is processed by the network analytics function.

### Claim 6 (depends on 3)

The apparatus of claim 3, wherein the information indicating to disable the analytics information of the network analytics function is processed by the at least one network function.

### Claim 7 (depends on 3)

The apparatus of claim 3, wherein the information indicating to disable the analytics information of the network analytics function is processed by a device configured to relay the analytics information between the network analytics function and the at least one network function.

### Claim 8 (depends on 3)

The apparatus of claim 3, wherein the instructions are further executable by the processor to cause the apparatus to receive capability information from a fifth generation core network the ability to disable the analytics information of the network analytics function.

### Claim 9 (depends on 8)

The apparatus of claim 8, wherein the capability information is received from a fifth generation core network.

### Claim 10 (depends on 3)

The apparatus of claim 3, wherein the analytics information is disabled only for the time interval or the time window.

### Claim 11

An apparatus comprising:
a processor; and
a memory coupled to the processor, the memory comprising instructions executable by the processor to cause the apparatus to:
transmit capability information indicating the ability to disable analytics information of a network analytics function from use by at least one network function that is subscribed to the analytics information;
wherein the information indicating to disable the analytics information of the network analytics function comprises:
instructions corresponding to the network data analytics function;
instructions corresponding to the at least one network function;
a data identifier based on the analytics information;
an analytics information type corresponding to the analytics information;
an identifier of the analytics information or an identifier of a type of the analytics information;
a time interval or time window corresponding to the analytics information;
instructions corresponding to a network slice instance;
instructions corresponding to a single network slice selection assistance information;
instructions corresponding to a network slice subnet instance;
or a combination thereof.

### Claim 12 (depends on 11)

The apparatus of claim 11, wherein the instructions are further executable by the processor to cause the apparatus to receive information indicating to disable the analytics information of the network analytics function from use by the at least one network function that is subscribed to the analytics information.

### Claim 13 (depends on 12)

The apparatus of claim 12, wherein the instructions are further executable by the processor to cause the apparatus to transmit feedback corresponding to the information indicating to disable the analytics information.

### Claim 14 (depends on 12)

The apparatus of claim 12, wherein the information indicating to disable the analytics information of the network analytics function is transmitted from an operation and management system.

### Claim 15 (depends on 11)

The apparatus of claim 11, wherein the analytics information is disabled only for the time interval or the time window.

### Claim 16 (depends on 1)

The method of claim 1, wherein the information indicating to disable the analytics information of the network analytics function is processed by the network analytics function.

### Claim 17 (depends on 1)

The method of claim 1, wherein the information indicating to disable the analytics information of the network analytics function is processed by the at least one network function.

### Claim 18 (depends on 1)

The method of claim 1, wherein the information indicating to disable the analytics information of the network analytics function is processed by a device between the network analytics function and the at least one network function.

### Claim 19 (depends on 1)

The method of claim 1, further comprising receiving capability information indicating the ability to disable the analytics information of the network analytics function.
