The provision of additional network resources (e.g., in the form of a dedicated super slice), can be requested on demand a per needed basis when higher capacity or performance is requested to facilitate the delivery of a service, when the delivery of the service cannot be met by a network slice associated with the service. A request for using a super slice can be sent to a management gateway device (mGW). The mGW can send the request for authorization to access the additional resources to a management device that manages the additional resources. Authorization can be granted for the additional resources to be used to facilitate or enable tasks that allow for continued delivery of that service.
