Instantiation - Should involve call to NSMF, calls to NSSMFs (allocate or modifyNSSI API calls), and then SB calls/actions on NSSI constituents. In case of RAN NSSI, it should involve calls to TN (for FH and MH) and RAN NF NSSI creation/update.
Note: TN NSSMF supports reuse of TN NSSI only when the NSI is reused. This is because, the interface from SO (TN NSSMF) to OOF for TN NSSI selection is not yet implemented.

| d | 1 | eMBB or mMTC like service parameters Sharing allowed | New | Reuse | New | New |
| Pre-requisite: There is an existing RAN NSSI that is suitable and can be reused. This requires either providing the service parameters in such a way RAN NSSI is reused, or creating a suitable and shareable RAN NSSI upfront. | |||||||
| e | 1 | eMBB or mMTC like service parameters Sharing allowed | New | New | Reuse | New |
| Pre-requisite: There is an existing Core NSSI that is suitable and can be reused. This requires either providing the service parameters in such a way Core NSSI is reused, or creating a suitable and shareable Core NSSI upfront. | |||||||
| f | 2 | eMBB or mMTC like service parameters Sharing allowed | New | New | Reuse | New |
| Pre-requisite: There is an existing RAN & Core NSSI that is suitable and can be reused. This requires either providing the service parameters in such a way RAN & Core NSSI are reused, or creating suitable and shareable RAN & Core NSSIs. | |||||||
| g | 2 | eMBB or mMTC like service parameters. with coverageArea more than what is already supported in a suitable existing and shareable NSI Sharing allowed | New | New | New | New |
| Pre-requisite: There should be a suitable existing NSI that is shareable, but whose coverageArea is smaller or does not have full overlap with the new service request. |
