Summary:A method for locality and serving scope set based network function (NF) profile prioritization and message routing includes, at an NF including at least one processor, receiving a service based interface (SBI) request including a preferred locality or a servingScope. The method further includes identifying an NF profile of a producer NF with an NF profile level locality or servingScope attribute that does not match the preferred locality or servingScope attribute in the SBI request and with a localitySet or servingScopeSet having a locality attribute or servingScopeSet attribute that matches the preferred locality or servingScope attribute in the SBI request. The method further includes setting an NF profile level priority of the NF profile based on a priority specified for the matching locality attribute in the localitySet or the servingScope attribute in the servingScopeSet.
