    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A public land mobile network (PLMN) may indicate to a user equipment (UE) which network slices are supported by available non-Third Generation Partnership Program (3GPP) interworking functions (N3IWF). The PLMN may provide, to the UE, non-3GPP access node (N3AN) selection information that indicates a set of N3IWFs and a set of supported network slices. The network slices may be indicated via Network Slice Simultaneous Registration Group (NSSRGs) associated with each N3IWF. If a UE is not configured to support NSSRGs, the PLMN may indicate network slices that may be used concurrently and may indicate one or more N3IWFs that support the indicated network slices. The UE may select an N3IWF based on one or more selected network slices. The UE may register with the N3IWF and connect to the N3AN based on an internet protocol address associated with the N3IWF.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described that provide for truncated identification indicators. A user equipment (UE) may receive control signaling indicating a truncating configuration for an identification indicator. The truncating configuration may indicate a set of bits within an initial identification indicator to remove to generate a truncated identification indicator. The UE may remove the indicated set of bits and transmit the truncated identification indicator to a base station. The base station may receive the truncated identification indicator and reconstruct the initial identification indicator according to the truncating configuration. The base station may reconstruct the initial identification indicator by adding the set of bits (e.g., removed by the UE to generate the truncated identification indicator) to the truncated identification indicator.
