Claim 0:
1. A device to host a service producer in a New Radio (5G) system (5GS), the device comprising: a memory to store instructions; and one or more processors coupled to the memory to execute the instructions to:
decode a request from a service consumer to manage one or more 5G quality of service (QoS) indicators (5QIs), each 5QI including a 5QI value and corresponding 5QI characteristics, wherein the request includes a request to one of configure the 5QIs or to obtain the 5Qis, wherein the request includes:
an Information Object Class (IOC) 5QICharacteristics that specifies, for an individual 5QI of the one or more 5QIs, an associated 5QI value and corresponding QoS characteristics, the 5QICharacteristics having attributes associated therewith including 5QI value, resourceType, priorityLevel, packetDelayBudget, PacketErrorRate, averaging Window, and maximumDataBurstVolume, the attributes being readable, not invariant and notifiable; and
an IOC 5QIDscpMappingSet to configure a mapping of the 5QIs to a differentiated services code point (DSCP), the 5QIDscpMappingSet having an attribute 5QIDscpMappingList that is readable, writable, not invariant and notifiable, the 5QIDscpMappingList including a list of 5QIdscpMapping data types having attributes including 5QI values and dscp values;

cause, in response to the request, at least one of a mapping of the 5QIs to DSCP or a transmission to the service consumer of the mapping of the 5QIs to the DSCP;
configure one or more network functions (NFs) of the 5GS with the 5QIs based on the request; and
encode for transmission to the service consumer a message including a result of managing the one or more 5QIs.
