The\r\ndocument also discusses related considerations with monitoring and\r\nsecurity.\r\n\r\nThis document also provides definitions of related terms to enable\r\nconsistent usage in other IETF documents that describe or use aspects\r\nof IETF Network Slices.","pub_date":"March 2024","keywords":["Network Slicing"],"obsoletes":[],"obsoleted_by":[],"updates":[],"updated_by":[],"see_also":[],"doi":"10.17487\/RFC9543","errata_url":null}
