    Abstract: A method comprises receiving information at a first network entity indicating a first data network identity associated with a request from a communications device; and selecting at the first network entity a second data network identity which is usable with respect to the communications device when said first data network identity is not usable with respect to said communications device, said selecting being in dependence on information associated with said communications device.

    Abstract: A method, apparatus, and computer program product for detecting and switching between locally available PLMNs accessible to a user equipment based on a Preferred PLMN List and a Network Slice Aware PLMN Exceptions List configured by a HPLMN. The user equipment connects to a preferred VPLMN. The user equipment determines that a particular network function is not supported by the connected preferred VPLMN. The user equipment determines that another VPLMN is required to support the particular network function. The user equipment then switches to a non-preferred VPLMN which supports the particular network function. Once the particular network function is no longer necessary for the user equipment to perform a required task, the user equipment switches back a preferred VPLMN

    Abstract: A method, apparatus and computer program product are provided to manage and use access information in a transitional and/or multigenerational network environment. In some example implementations, an indication associated with the availability of services associated with a second network is received during the performance of procedures associated with a layer of a first network. Based at least in part on the indication associated with the availability of second network services in the location associated with a mobile device, a control signal is generated causing a reconfiguration of a mobile device. Some example embodiments arise in the context of the fifth generation (5G) networks deployed alongside Long Term Evolution (LTE) networks, such that the mobile device can be reconfigured based at least in part on the availability or unavailability of 5G service.
