A method and apparatus is provided for controlling network access in a communication system comprising a packet data network and a circuit switched network. The packet data network receives, from the circuit switched network, a message indicating that the circuit switched network is congested. In response to receiving the indication, the packet data network broadcasts a message informing that access to one or more services of the circuit switched network is restricted. In various embodiments, the message received from the circuit switched network may include access class barring parameters identifying one or more classes of user equipment or service classes that are one or more of being barred from accessing the circuit switched network or whose access to the circuit switched network is being reduced and/or may identify one or more coverage areas or access nodes of the circuit switched network where access is being restricted. |
