Problems solved by technology

[0038] Whereas owners of physical networks are often informed that it is difficult to specify and guarantee related SLAs, such agreements have so far been impossible for virtual networks in terms of parameters such as service availability and reliability, because there is no Know the mechanisms to reliably provide such properties and control related parameters in a virtual network

Embodiment Construction

[0094] Examples and embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. To illustrate the invention, the examples and embodiments will be described in conjunction with generally described network architectures. It should be noted that the present invention is not limited to application to a particular system or environment, but is applicable to network structures and the like where virtual resources can be selected and isolated for use in a virtual network.

[0095] The described network elements and functions (such as physical nodes at the infrastructure provider level, or processing or control entities used within any of the VNO, VNP or PIP / InP levels) can be implemented by software (for example, by using computer program product) and / or implemented by hardware. In either case, the nodes, devices and network entities used accordingly may include several means and components (not shown) required for control, processing an...

Abstract

There is proposed a mechanism for improving a reliability of a virtual network and resources used. At a virtual network operator level, a request for providing resources for the virtual network is sent towards an infrastructure provider level. The request includes an indication regarding a required availability and reliability level which is to be achieved by the resources of the virtual network. At an infrastructure provider level the request is processed in order to determine the required availability and reliability level, and it is checked whether the required availability and reliability level is achievable for the resources to be provided for the virtual network. A result (confirmation or denial) of the check is sent back to the virtual network operator level.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to network virtualization. In particular, the present invention relates to a method, device, system and computer program product that provide mechanisms for improving the creation / modification process for virtual networks in order to ensure the reliability of virtual networks and resources used therein. Background technique [0002] The prior art in this technical field can be found, for example, in the following document: "Network Virtualization from a Signaling Perspective (Network Virtualization from a Signaling Perspective)" by Roland Bless and Christoph Werle (Future-Net '09 International Workshop on Network of the Future 2009 in conjunction with IEEE ICC 2009, Dresden, June 16-18, 2009); P. Papadimitriou, O. Maennel, A. Greenhalgh, A. Feldmann, and L. Mathy, "Implementing Network Virtualization for a Future Internet (network virtualization for the future Internet)" (20th ITC Specialist Seminar on Network Virtualizat...
