Embodiment Construction

[0042]The present disclosure generally discloses a network infrastructure virtualization mechanism configured to support virtualization of a communication network (CN)'s network infrastructure (NI) to provide a virtualized network infrastructure (VNI) for a CN. ). The network infrastructure virtualization mechanism can be configured to support virtualization of NI's infrastructure resources (IR), thereby providing NI's virtualized infrastructure resources (VIR). The CN's IR may include network resources (NRs) that may be virtualized to provide virtualized NRs (VNRs), service resources (SRs) that may be virtualized to provide virtualized SRs (VSRs), etc., and various combinations thereof. Virtualizing NI's IR to provide a VIR can be thought of as providing an infrastructure slice of a VIR that can be managed in various ways. Virtualization of NI's IR can be performed using various types of virtualization to provide VIR, such as resource management-based virtualization, resourc...

Abstract

The present disclosure discloses infrastructure resource states which may be configured for use in managing both infrastructure resources (IRs) and virtualized infrastructure resources (VIRs). The newresources states may include a Network Unequipped (NU) state, a Network Equipped (NE) state, a Network Ready (NR) state, a Service Ready (SR) state, an Out-of- Service (OOS) state, and an In-Service(IS) state. The infrastructure resource states may be configured to enable resource transfers in a programmable virtual infrastructure having one or more tenants (e.g., owners, BUs, partners, customers, or the like) at one or more hierarchical layers. The infrastructure resource states may be configured to support VIR management for multi- owner virtualization such that multiple owners may manageresource allocation of the network infrastructure of the communication network and multi-tenant virtualization such that multiple tenants, at one or more hierarchical layers, may share portions of thenetwork infrastructure of the communication network.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates generally to the field of communication networks, and more particularly, but not exclusively, to infrastructure resource states within the context of communication networks. Background technique [0002] Various technologies are being applied to improve various aspects of communication networks. For example, software-defined networking (SDN) is being employed to provide separation of control and data planes of communication networks, network function virtualization (NFV) is being applied to virtualize various functions of communication networks, and so on. However, while such techniques may provide various benefits for communication networks, such techniques may fail to provide certain types of features for communication networks. Contents of the invention [0003] The present disclosure generally discloses mechanisms related to infrastructure resource states for network infrastructure of a communication network. [0...
