Abstract

A method, apparatus and computer program product are provided for overriding requests for a selected communication resource and indicating a different resource(s) for communication. A method and apparatus may select a communication channel resource type associated with a first set of resources based in part on determining that a predetermined condition is met and may provide a message, to a network device, requesting usage of the selected communication channel resource type. The method and apparatus may also receive a response, from the network device, denying the request for the selected communication channel resource type. The method and apparatus may also cause selection of another communication channel resource type associated with a second set of resources and providing a generated request to the network device requesting usage of the second type of communication channel resource type.
