1. An apparatus for wireless communication at a first user equipment (UE), comprising:
one or more memories; and
one or more processors coupled to the one or more memories, the one or more processors, either alone or in combination, configured to:
establish a signaling radio bearer (SRB) for a communication session with a second UE on a first frequency band based on a radio resource control (RRC) connection;
send, to the second UE over the SRB on the first frequency band, a first RRC message to establish a data radio bearer (DRB) for the communication session on a second frequency band; and
configure the DRB on the second frequency band based on one or more parameters of a device-to-device discovery procedure with the second UE over the first frequency band.
