9.11.3.46 Rejected NSSAI

Taught in 4. Inside TS 24.501, the document at the centre (CT1 — the group that writes what your phone says, overview).

The purpose of the Rejected NSSAI information element is to identify a collection of rejected S-NSSAIs.

The Rejected NSSAI information element is coded as shown in figure 9.11.3.46.1, figure 9.11.3.46.2 and table 9.11.3.46.1.

The Rejected NSSAI is a type 4 information element with a minimum length of 4 octets and a maximum length of 42 octets.

Value part of the Rejected NSSAI information element (octet 3 to v)
The value part of the Rejected NSSAI information element consists of one or more rejected S-NSSAIs. Each rejected S-NSSAI consists of one S-NSSAI and an associated cause value. The length of each rejected S-NSSAI can be determined by the 'length of rejected S-NSSAI' field in the first octet of the rejected S-NSSAI.
The UE shall store the complete list received (NOTE 0). If more than 8 rejected S-NSSAIs are included in this information element, the UE shall store the first 8 rejected S-NSSAIs and ignore the remaining octets of the information element.
Rejected S-NSSAI:

Bits
4321
0000S-NSSAI not available in the current PLMN or SNPN
0001S-NSSAI not available in the current registration area
0010S-NSSAI not available due to the failed or revoked network slice-specific authentication and authorization
All other values are reserved.
Slice/service type (SST) (octet 4)
This field contains the 8 bit SST value. The coding of the SST value part is defined in 3GPP TS 23.003 [4]. (NOTE 2)
Slice differentiator (SD) (octet 5 to octet 7)
This field contains the 24 bit SD value. The coding of the SD value part is defined in 3GPP TS 23.003 [4]. (NOTE 3)
NOTE 0: The number of rejected S-NSSAI(s) shall not exceed eight.NOTE 1: If octet 5 is included, then octet 6 and octet 7 shall be included.NOTE 2: If the Cause value is "S-NSSAI not available due to the failed or revoked network slice-specific authentication and authorization", this field shall contain the 8 bit SST value of an S-NSSAI in the S-NSSAI(s) of the HPLMN.NOTE 3: If the Cause value is "S-NSSAI not available due to the failed or revoked network slice-specific authentication and authorization", this field, if included, shall contain the 24 bit SD value of an S-NSSAI in the S-NSSAI(s) of the HPLMN.
