Claim 6:
7. An apparatus for wireless communication at a user equipment (UE), comprising:
one or more memories storing processor-executable code; and
one or more processors coupled with the one or more memories and individually or collectively operable to execute the code to cause the UE to:
send, to a network entity, a first request for access to a network slice of a plurality of network slices, the first request comprising an identifier of the network slice;
receive, in a first control message from the network entity, an indication of a cause for rejecting access to the network slice;
receive, in the first control message, an indication of a second geographic coverage area where access to the network slice is allowed, wherein the second geographic coverage area is different from a first geographic coverage area where access to the network slice is rejected; and
determine whether to send a second request for access to the network slice based at least in part on the UE being within the second geographic coverage area.
