1. A method, comprising:
maintaining one or more sets of stand-alone non-public network (SNPN) selection parameters by a user equipment (UE), wherein the UE is enabled to access to SNPNs using credentials from a credential holder;
selecting an SNPN by the UE based on a set of the one or more sets of SNPN selection parameters corresponding to selected subscription information of a subscribed network, wherein the selected subscription information has subscription parameters comprising a configured list of 3GPP PS_Data_Off exempt services associated with the selected subscription information to be used in the subscribed SNPN;
successfully registering to the selected SNPN using credentials supplied by the selected subscription information; and
establishing a PDU session with the selected SNPN, wherein the UE applies a first list of 3GPP PS_Data_Off exempt services to be used in a non-subscribed SNPN that is different from the configured list of 3GPP PS_Data_Off exempt services associated with the selected subscription information to be used in the subscribed SNPN.
