[0043] Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of a module block of a management intent processing device applied to a management intent service processing party, provided in an embodiment of the present invention. Detailed Implementation

[0044] Exemplary embodiments of the invention will now be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. While exemplary embodiments of the invention are shown in the drawings, it should be understood that the invention may be implemented in various forms and should not be limited to the embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided so that this invention will be thorough and complete, and will fully convey the scope of the invention to those skilled in the art.

[0045] like Figure 1 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a method for processing management intents, applied to a management intent service processor, the method comprising:

[0046] Step 11: Receive a request from the management intent service provider to create or modify a management intent instance;

[0047] Step 12: Determine whether to perform a feasibility test on the instance of the intention to create or change management based on the request and the preset detection strategy, and obtain the detection result;

[0048] Step 13: Based on the detection results, determine whether to execute the operation of creating or changing the management intent instance.

[0049] In this embodiment, such as Figure 2As shown, the Management Intent Service Proposer (MnS Consumer) is the role that proposes / triggers management intents; the Management Intent Service Processor (MnS Producer) is the processing party driven by management intents, responsible for processing the management intent instances issued by the Management Intent Service Proposer; the feasibility of creating or modifying a management intent instance refers to whether the subsequent execution process can proceed after the intent instance is received by the Management Intent Service Processor; after receiving the management intent instance request issued by the Management Intent Service Proposer, the Management Intent Service Processor, before proceeding with the execution process of the management intent instance, determines whether to conduct a preliminary assessment of the feasibility of the management intent instance based on a preset detection strategy, and then decides whether to proceed with the subsequent execution process based on the assessment result, thereby reducing the management overhead caused by obviously unreasonable management intents, improving management efficiency, and reducing the time from issuance to execution and feedback of unreasonable management intents, thus improving the experience of the Management Intent Service Proposer.

[0050] In an optional embodiment of the present invention, the preset detection strategy is described, wherein the preset detection strategy is carried in the request and / or is configured locally by the management intent service processor.

[0051] In this embodiment, the preset detection strategy may be the feasibility detection strategy of the management intent service proposer for the intent instance carried in the request when the management intent service proposer issues the request, or it may be the default feasibility detection strategy configured by the management intent service processor itself.

[0052] It should be noted that if both the request and the management intent service handler itself have detection strategies, the detection strategy carried in the request shall prevail for detection, making the subsequent detection of the intent instance more targeted, thereby improving the accuracy and efficiency of detection; if the request does not carry a detection strategy, the detection strategy configured locally by the management intent service handler shall prevail for detection; the intent instance shall be detected according to the detection strategy to improve the efficiency of the subsequent execution process and avoid unnecessary execution processes.

[0053] Furthermore, the detection strategy carried in the request includes: forcing feasibility detection on the management intent instance and / or forcing no feasibility detection; the detection strategy configured locally by the management intent service processor includes: performing feasibility detection on the management intent instance by default and / or not performing feasibility detection by default.

[0054] In an optional embodiment of the present invention, step 12 above may include:

[0055] Step 121: Determine whether to perform a feasibility test on the instance of creating or changing management intent based on the forced feasibility test or the default feasibility test, and obtain the first test result;

[0056] Step 122: Based on the forced non-feasibility test or the default non-feasibility test, determine that no feasibility test will be performed on the instance of the creation or change management intent, and obtain the second test result.

[0057] In this embodiment, it should be understood that steps 121 and 122 do not exist simultaneously, nor are they limited by the order of steps. In practical applications, feasibility testing can be performed on the creation or modification of the management intent instance based on its importance or user needs. When testing is required, the management intent service processor performs feasibility testing according to the mandatory or default testing strategy, and obtains a first test result indicating whether the creation or modification of the management intent instance can proceed with subsequent execution processes. This effectively avoids the overhead of directly executing unreasonable intent instances and increasing management intent costs. When testing is not required, the management intent service processor does not perform feasibility testing according to the mandatory or default testing strategy, and obtains a second test result. The second test result is essentially the result of not performing feasibility testing, which is fundamentally different from the first test result. Based on the testing strategy, it is determined whether to perform feasibility testing on the creation or modification of the management intent to improve the efficiency of intent instance execution and management efficiency.

[0058] In an optional embodiment of the present invention, step 121 above may include:

[0059] Step 1211: Using preset feasibility detection information, perform feasibility detection on the instance of the intention to create or change management, and obtain a first detection result of successful detection; or use preset feasibility detection information to perform feasibility detection on the instance of the intention to create or change management, and obtain a first detection result of failed detection.

[0060] In this embodiment, the preset feasibility detection criteria information serves as the basis for determining whether the intent instance can proceed with subsequent execution processes. Feasibility detection is performed on the creation or modification management intent instance based on the preset feasibility detection criteria to obtain a first detection result. The first detection result includes successful detection and failed detection results. If a successful first detection result is obtained, it indicates that the intent instance is reasonable in the current network environment and can proceed with subsequent execution processes. If a failed first detection result is obtained, it indicates that the intent instance is unreasonable in the current network environment and subsequent execution processes are not recommended. Furthermore, the reason for the unreasonableness of the intent instance can be obtained based on the failed first detection result. By detecting the feasibility of the creation or modification management intent instance, unnecessary execution processes are avoided for unreasonable intent instances, thereby improving the efficiency of the execution process.

[0061] In an optional embodiment of the present invention, based on step 1211, the method further includes:

[0062] Step 1212: Feedback response information to the management intent service provider; the response message includes: a first detection result indicating successful detection of creating or changing the management intent instance; or a first detection result indicating failed detection of creating or changing the management intent instance.

[0063] In this embodiment, after the management intent service processor obtains the first detection result, it sends a response message to the management intent service proposer. The response message may carry the first detection result of successful or failed detection. Preferably, when carrying the first detection result of failed detection, the response message may carry the reason for the failure, so as to adjust the intent instance in a timely manner and facilitate subsequent execution processes.

[0064] In an optional embodiment of the present invention, the preset feasibility detection basis information is described, and the preset feasibility detection basis information includes at least one of the following:

[0065] Network and / or service performance metrics statistics related to the management intent instance within the most recent preset time period;

[0066] Based on experience, the following are examples of feasible absolute value ranges and / or relative value thresholds for management intent targets;

[0067] The current network resource usage and available resources;

[0068] The network simulation system or digital twin network is used to perform predictive analysis and judgment results.

[0069] In this embodiment, the feasibility of the intent instance can be determined based on statistical results of network and / or service performance indicators related to the intent instance in the most recent specific time period in the current network history, or based on the absolute value range and / or relative value threshold for performance improvement of the intent instance given by experience, or based on the current resource usage and available resources of the network, or based on predictive analysis and judgment of the network simulation system or digital twin network. Of course, the preset feasibility detection basis information is not limited to the above four items. Among the above four basis items, the statistical results of performance indicators, the absolute value range and / or relative value threshold for performance improvement of the intent instance, the current resource usage and available resources of the network, and the network simulation system or digital twin network can be valued or limited based on the actual situation of the intent instance sent by the intent service provider and the actual situation of the current network environment.

[0070] Furthermore, the preset feasibility detection information is configurable and can be updated periodically and / or event-based.

[0071] In this embodiment, the detection method and basis for feasibility detection are configurable. At the same time, the configuration can be updated periodically and / or event-based according to changes in network resources, environment, capabilities, and / or the actual fulfillment / non-fulfillment of similar management intentions in the past, so as to cope with different types of management intention instances and improve the accuracy of feasibility detection.

[0072] Embodiments of the present invention also provide a method for processing management intents, applied to a management intent service provider, the method comprising:

[0073] Step 21: Send a request to the management intent service handler to create or modify a management intent instance;

[0074] Step 22: Receive the detection result from the management intent service processor, which determines whether to perform a feasibility test on the creation or modification management intent instance based on a preset detection strategy.

[0075] In this embodiment, the preset detection strategy may include: the request for the intent instance sent by the intent service provider carries the feasibility detection strategy of the intent service provider for the intent instance, so that the subsequent detection of the feasibility of the intent instance is more targeted, thereby improving the accuracy and efficiency of the detection.

[0076] like Figure 3 As shown, the method of the above embodiment will be described with a specific example. The specific process is as follows:

[0077] Step 31: The MnS Consumer sends a request to the MnS Producer to create / modify a network management intent instance. This request may carry the MnS Consumer's feasibility detection policy for the intent instance. Examples of the feasibility detection policy include, but are not limited to: forcing feasibility detection, and / or forcing non-feasibility detection.

[0078] Step 32: The MnS Producer determines whether to perform feasibility testing on the intent instance based on the feasibility testing strategy issued by the MnS Consumer, and / or based on its own feasibility testing strategy. Examples of the MnS Producer's own feasibility testing strategy include, but are not limited to: performing feasibility testing by default when the MnS Consumer does not specify a feasibility testing strategy, and / or not performing feasibility testing by default.

[0079] Condition 1: If the judgment result is a feasibility check of the execution intent instance, then perform the following steps:

[0080] Step 33: The MnS Producer performs a feasibility test. The feasibility test is characterized by the fact that it can be completed and the result determined without creating an instance of the management intent in the actual network and executing tasks related to that intent instance.

[0081] The embodiments of the feasibility testing methods and testing criteria mentioned above include, but are not limited to:

[0082] Based on the statistical results of network and / or service performance indicators related to this management intent in the recent period of time (within the most recent specific time period in history);

[0083] A comprehensive judgment is made based on the absolute range of feasible intent targets and / or the relative value threshold of performance improvement given by expert experience.

[0084] A comprehensive judgment is made based on the current network resource usage and available resource status;

[0085] Predictive analysis and judgment are based on network simulation systems or digital twin networks;

[0086] The feasibility testing method and basis are configurable and can be periodically and / or event-based updated according to changes in network resources, environment, capabilities, and / or the actual fulfillment / non-fulfillment of similar management intentions in the past.

[0087] Condition 2: If the feasibility test result is False / Failed / Infeasible, then execute:

[0088] Step 34: The MnS Producer reports the feasibility test result of the intent instance to the MnS Consumer as "False / Failure / Infeasible". Optionally, the feedback can also include the reason value for False / Failure / Infeasible and explain the specific reason.

[0089] Condition 2: If the feasibility test result is True / Success / Feasible, then execute:

[0090] Step 35: MnS Producer creates / modifies the intent MOI configuration;

[0091] Step 36: The MnS Producer sends a response to the MnS Consumer regarding the creation / modification of the intent instance. Optionally, this step carries / feeds back the feasibility test result of the intent instance as "True / Success / Feasible".

[0092] Step 37: Perform other follow-up processes, such as: performing relevant management tasks based on the management intent instance, evaluating intent fulfillment, and providing feedback.

[0093] Condition 1: If the judgment result is that the feasibility check of the intent instance should not be performed, then:

[0094] Step 38: Perform other subsequent processes, such as: creating / changing intent MOI configuration, and providing feedback on the creation / change intent instance response.

[0095] The above embodiments of the present invention add an intent feasibility detection process before the intent instance execution process to determine the feasibility of the management intent issued by the network management intent proposer MnS Consumer to the network management intent processor MnS Producer, and then decide whether to proceed with the subsequent execution process based on the determination result. This can effectively reduce the management overhead caused by unreasonable management intents proposed by MnS Consumer, and improve the experience of MnS Consumer through timely feedback.
