Problems solved by technology

In this way, on the one hand, it is obvious that communication operators cannot manage the network they deploy comprehensively and effectively. On the other hand, if a fault occurs or network adjustment is required, equipment manufacturers must participate in resource participation, which leads to fault recovery. And the low efficiency of network adjustment and the problem of large delay

example 1

[0212] This example proposes a method for using MANO to arrange physical resources on the RAN side, including:

[0213] Encapsulate PNFD and PNF software version to generate PNF information package, so that MANO can obtain complete information required for PNF orchestration and management.

[0214] The resource abstraction for DU, RRU and antenna that can be arranged is carried out, and the description content of PNFD by ETSI is extended according to the agent location information, hardware information, software information and RAT information.

[0215] The enhancement of NFVO orchestration and management functions is defined to support MANO to complete operations such as RAN side PNF resource query, PNF version update, PNF RAT configuration management, and PNF status setting, so as to realize the life cycle management of PNF by MANO.

[0216] For the RAN side PNF can be arranged and managed in MANO, this example defines the PNF information package, and the NFVO can arrange the ...

example 2

[0244] This example performs PNF orchestration based on the PNF information packet defined in Example 1, for example, using the PNF management interface corresponding to the PNF information packet to perform PNF orchestration and management.

[0245] NFVO supports the PNF packet management function. Refers to NFVO supports the software package information management functions such as online request, update request, addition request, and deletion request of PNF information package, and can cooperate with OSS or (network management, NM), EM, etc. to complete software package validity verification, software package PNFD analysis and other functions.

[0246] NFVO supports the orchestration and management functions of PNF. It means that when the PNF has been installed, NFVO can deploy the actual network functions (including PNF software deployment, RAT deployment, etc.) to the PNF according to the parameters provided by the PNFD in the PNF information package. It can also arrange...

example 3

[0263] This example proposes a PNF-adjustable PNFD description method. By adding a description of PNFC to the PNF and defining the adjustment method of the PNFC, MANO can orchestrate the PNF like a VNF, and realize the end-to-end orchestration of the entire network. Specifically as follows:

[0264] Define PNFC. This solution adds the definition of PNFC to PNFD. A PNFC can represent a physical unit in a pooled resource, or a physical resource component that constitutes a PNF network function. Each PNFC describes the components of a PNF, and a PNF can be composed of one or more PNFCs. The PNFCs that make up the PNF may be the same type of physical resources, or may be different types of physical resources. Correspondingly, in order to deploy and manage the PNFC, the PNFC description should contain at least the description of the following information:

[0265] The PNFC identifier is used to uniquely identify a PNFC in the network. NFVO or EM can uniquely identify a PNFC th...

Abstract

The embodiment of the present invention discloses a method for generating PNF information packets of a PNF on the RAN side, an arrangement management method, a network element and a storage medium. The method for generating a PNF information packet includes: obtaining first predetermined information of a physical network function PNF on the RAN side to generate a physical network function description PNFD; generating a PNF information packet including the PNFD and the PNF software, wherein the The above PNF information package is used for PNF orchestration management.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of network technology, and in particular, to a method for generating PNF information packets of a physical network function (Physical Network Function, PNF) on a wireless (Residential Access Network, RAN) side, an arrangement and management method, a network element and a storage medium. Background technique [0002] According to the requirements of the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI), a set of automated deployment specifications are defined in the Network Function Virtualization Management and Orchestration (NFV-MANO) domain to implement a set of virtualized applications Deployment process and virtualized application deployment architecture. The virtualized application deployment architecture here includes: Network Functions Virtualization Orchestrator (NFVO), Virtualized Network Function Manager (VNFM), and Virtualized Network Function (VNF), etc.; Among them, NFVO is responsible for ...
