Abstract
In a 4G LTE wireless carrier network, network slice instances are instantiated that are configured to provide a configured set of services that are accessible to a controlled set of user devices. A service profile for a user device is identified and analyzed. When the service profile matches a configured set of services for one of the instantiated network slice instances, the user device is enabled to access the matching instantiated network instance. The provisioning of the network slice instances is performed by a dedicated node.
