Summary:A system, method, node and computer program for allocating a user equipment, UE, (30) roaming in a visited network (10), to a dedicated core network, DCN, (120) out of a plurality of DCN (120) available in the visited network (10), is provided. The method comprises receiving a trigger comprising a DCN-type indicator from a home network (20) of the roaming UE (30), and determining, responsive to the reception of the DCN-type indicator, whether an DCN-type indicated by the received DCN-type indicator is supported by the visited network (10). The method further comprises determining, if the DCN-type is not supported by the visited network (10), an alternative DCN-type supported by the visited network (10) and allocating, by the visited network (10), the roaming UE (30) to a DCN (120) of the alternative DCN-type.
