System and method for achieving virtual network function VNF management

Abstract

The embodiment of the invention discloses a system and a method for achieving virtual network function (VNF) management. The system comprises an adapter distribution module, a MANO access management and orchestration module and a micro VNF management access module; the adapter distribution module is used for receiving a VNF management request triggered by a user, and calling the REST interface provided by the MANO access module to send the VNF management request to the MANO system when the VNF needs to be deployed based on the MANO system or calling the REST standard interface provided by themicro-VNF management access module to send the VNF management request to the micro-cloud device when the VNF needs to be deployed based on the micro-cloud device,. Thus, interface standardization of management in a VNF life cycle and the like is achieved, and meanwhile, the research and development cost of SDWAN service and the maintenance cost of the SDWAN service are reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] Embodiments of the present invention relate to but are not limited to network function virtualization in the communication field, and more specifically relate to a system and method for implementing VNF management of virtualized network functions. Background technique [0002] In the field of communication, with the increase of business and traffic pressure, the demand for the deployment of a large number of expensive dedicated network equipment increases, and with the development of Internet OTT (Over The Top) business, operators tend to be reduced to cheap pipes. Therefore, the traditional network Facing challenges in scheduling, management, operating costs, low utilization, etc. [0003] With the development of IT (Information Technology, information technology) virtualization technology and data center technology, the development of NFV (Network Function Virtualization, network function virtualization) is supported. NFV uses standard hardware as t...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0005] It can be seen that in SDWAN business scenarios, different deployment scenarios need to be distinguished to distinguish different VNF ​​orchestration and management methods, resulting in the need to implement multiple sets of solutions for VNF management, which increases R&D and maintenance costs, and also increases NFV Standardization Difficulty of Technology
