    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment, UE, may identify (305) that the UE is not connected with a first network to which the UE subscribes, and identify a fallback configuration (310). The UE may determine (315), based on the fallback configuration, a second network of one or more other networks with which the UE is to connect. The UE may attempt (320) to connect with the second network based on the fallback configuration and the UE not being connected with the first network. In some cases, a base station of a network may establish a connection with UEs based on receiving registration messages from the UEs in response to transmitting an indication that the network is available as a fallback network, identify a congestion level of the network and switch to a non-subscriber rejection mode in which the base station rejects connection with non-subscriber UEs.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A communication device, otherwise known as a user equipment (UE) may configure an indication associated with network slice information. The UE may determine, based on the indication, that the network slice information is subject to network slice-specific authentication and authorization (NSSAA). Additionally or alternatively, the UE may determine an authentication credential associated with network slice information, and transmit, to an access and mobility management function (AMF), an indication related to an availability of an authentication credential associated with the network slice information. The UE may access a network slice associated with the network slice information based on the NSSAA of the network slice information.

    Abstract: In one aspect, a method includes determining, by a user equipment (UE), a pair identifier (ID); and transmitting, by the UE, a protocol data unit (PDU) session establishment message and the pair ID. In another aspect, a method include receiving, by a first network entity from a second network entity, a PDU session request message including a pair ID; and associating, by the network entity, a PDU session indicated by the PDU session request message with the pair ID. In yet another aspect, a method includes receiving, by a network entity from a UE, a PDU session establishment message and a pair ID; and transmitting, by the network entity, a PDU session request message responsive to the PDU session establishment message and including the pair ID.

    Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may transmit a registration request for restricted access (RA), wherein the registration request selectively includes an onboarding access request. The UE may selectively communicate with an onboarding network to authenticate and authorize a particular network based at least in part on whether the registration request includes the onboarding access request. The UE may complete the RA registration after transmitting the registration request and based at least in part on selectively communicating with the onboarding network to authenticate and authorize the particular network. Numerous other aspects are described.

    Abstract: A wakeup signal (WUS) group that may be divided into WUS sub-groups, criteria or metrics for dividing the WUS group into a set of WUS sub-groups, and signaling or messaging to support the division of the WUS group into the set of WUS sub-groups are provided. For example, a set of UEs may be divided into WUS sub-groups based at least in part on respective frequencies of occurrence of paging occasions for the set of UEs (e.g., based at least in part on traffic type, observations regarding past paging occasions, predictions regarding future paging occasions, and/or the like) and/or based at least in part on other considerations. Furthermore, some techniques and apparatuses described herein provide for the mapping of network device-level WUS sub-groups (e.g., supported by a network device such as an MME) to base station-level WUS sub-groups (e.g., supported by a base station).
