1. An apparatus comprising:
- at least one processor and at least one memory including a computer program code, the at least one memory and the computer program code configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus at least to;
receive a network identity of a virtual operational network, the virtual operational network having a plurality of donor system candidates;
receive a configuration profile, the configuration profile comprising parameters in relation to resource usage in the virtual operational network;
select at least one donor node from the donor system candidates; and
indicate the network identity and the configuration profile to the selected at least one donor node in connection to setting up a backhaul connection to the selected at least one donor node.
