Claim 8:
9. Network equipment, comprising:
a processor; and
a memory that stores executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, facilitate performance of operations, comprising:
receiving a first identification of a group of network slice identifiers;
receiving a second identification of a group network slice rule corresponding to the group of network slice identifiers; and
pre-configuring multiple network slice identifiers within the group of network slice identifiers to be processed by the network equipment according to the group network slice rule, wherein, as a result of the pre-configuring, unless a different network slice rule other than the group network slice rule is determined to take priority over the group network slice rule, the network equipment is pre-configured to process network communications comprising any of the multiple network slice identifiers according to the group network slice rule.
