Claim 16:
17. A system comprising:
an end point for operation with a communication network to access a service, the end point configured to:
transmit a registration message to the communication network to register the end point with the service, the service associated with a network slice;
receive, from the network, operating parameters for use in accessing the service;
receive a response to the registration message, the response identifying whether admission control is required to access the service; and
when admission control is not required, transmit or receive each of one or more packets in accordance with the operating parameters, thereby causing the one or more packets to be associated with the service; and
an edge node configured to:
monitor for a packet belonging to the one or more packets, the packet to be received by the end point and being associated with the service, the packet identifying, as a packet destination, the end point communicatively coupled to the edge node; and
upon detection of the packet or the other packet by the service monitor, to:
determine parameters for use in communicating the packet or the other packet to the end point; and
transmit the packet or the other packet in accordance with the determined parameters,
wherein the packet is received from a pre-configured virtual network supporting the network slice and the service.
