Abstract
A wireless device receives, from an access and mobility management function (AMF), configuration information for a time duration associated with inactivity of a network slice of one or more allowed network slices. The wireless device starts the time duration, determines that the time duration expires, and removes the network slice from the one or more allowed network slice.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- receiving, by a wireless device from an access and mobility management function (AMF), configuration information for a time duration associated with inactivity of a network slice of one or more allowed network slices;
- starting, by the wireless device, the time duration;
- determining, by the wireless device, that the time duration expires;
- and
- removing, by the wireless device and in response to determining, the network slice from the one or more allowed network slice.
A wireless device comprising one or more processors and memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the wireless device to:
- receive, from an access and mobility management function (AMF), configuration information for a time duration associated with inactivity of a network slice of one or more allowed network slices;
- start the time duration;
- determine that the time duration expires;
- and
- remove, in response to determining, the network slice from the one or more allowed network slice.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause a wireless device to:
- receive, from an access and mobility management function (AMF), configuration information for a time duration associated with inactivity of a network slice of one or more allowed network slices;
- start the time duration;
- determine that the time duration expires;
- and
- remove, in response to determining, the network slice from the one or more allowed network slice.
