Summary:A method for adjusting priorities of messages at a network function (NF) with multiple network slice support includes, at a first NF that supports multiple network slices, storing a database of rules specifying network-slice-based priority adjustment parameters. The method further includes receiving a message from a second NF. The method further includes determining that a congestion or overload condition exists, and, in response. determining network slice information associated with the message, determining, using the network slice information and the database of network-slice-based priority adjustment parameters, a network-slice-adjusted priority value for the message, and discarding or processing the message based on the network-slice-adjusted priority value for the message.
