Network slice determination method and related device

Abstract

An embodiment of the invention discloses a network slice determination method. Based on the method, a service server can initiatively initiate a slice establishment request when determining a servicedemand for establishing a network slice, and the slice establishment request comprises a service quality parameter supporting the service demand. The terminal can obtain the first equipment triggeringrequest corresponding to the slice establishing request, the corresponding slice configuration identifier is determined according to the service quality parameter included in the first equipment triggering request, and the slice configuration identifier can reflect the configuration parameter of the network slice capable of supporting the service quality parameter. According to the slice configuration identifier, the termial initiates a data path establishment request for the service server, the network slice and the establishment of the data path in the network slice can be completed in the5G network, so that a slice establishment request does not need to be initiated by a terminal, the establishment of the network slice can be completed under the original application system architecture, application adaptation difficulty is reduced, and consumption of labor cost is reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The present application relates to the field of communications, and in particular, to a method and a related device for determining network slices. Background technique [0002] Network Slice (Network Slice, NSL) will be an important technical means in the 5th generation mobile networks (5G) network to meet the special business requirements of different industries for the network. Network slicing is a communication resource that can ensure that bearer services can meet Service Level Requirement (SLR) requirements. For example, in some scenarios, network service quality of a protocol data unit (Protocol Data Unit, PDU) session between a user equipment (User Equipment, UE) and a server can be supported through established network slicing. [0003] Currently, in the network slicing architecture supported by the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP), when there is a need to establish a network slice, the application (Application, APP) installed in the...

Problems solved by technology

[0004] In this way, many apps currently in use must be upgraded or even redeveloped to support the above-mentioned function of establishing network slicing, and additionally need to apply for an ID from the operator, which greatly increases the cost of adaptation.
