Original Abstract Submitted

a random access method and apparatus are provided. the method includes: the terminal device receives system information that indicates a first random access configuration of n first features of a network device, one first feature is one feature or one feature combination, the first random access configuration includes m first configurations and n second configurations, there is a correspondence between the m first configurations and the n second configurations, and m and n are positive integers. the terminal device initiates random access based on the first random access configuration. a random access configuration is for the n first features, and the first configuration is a shared configuration. the shared configuration may be a parameter shared by a plurality of first features. the second configuration is a dedicated configuration and is a configuration applicable to the one first feature.
