Nothing yet supported in any of the projects.

I have no idea how that would be used in QMI modems, don't have any up
to date QMI reference.

In MBIM, there's Microsoft extensions for 5G in the extension v3.0
that include settings for NSSAI configuration and monitoring, but
libmbim doesn't have full support for those yet (it's quite close
though).

And in ModemManager, I have an API suggestion merge request that would
allow us to set the default configured NSSAI in the modem among other
things (based on the MBIM MS extension really), but right now it's
only the API suggestion:
