Abstract
A network service management method includes receiving, by a second NFVO, a first request sent by a first NFVO; and establishing, by the second NFVO, a connection between the nested network service instance and the composite network service instance and a connection between the nested network service instance and a member instance in the composite network service instance based on the service access point instance and the information about the service access point instance, and establishing a network connection between the nested network service instance and a member instance in the nested network service instance based on the service access point instance and the information about the service access point instance.

A network service management method, comprising:
- receiving, by a second network functions virtualization orchestrator (NFVO), a first request sent by a first NFVO, wherein the first request is used to request creating a nested network service instance in a composite network service instance and carries information about a service access point instance associated with the nested network service instance;
- and
- establishing, by the second NFVO, a connection between the nested network service instance and the composite network service instance and a connection between the nested network service instance and a member instance in the composite network service instance based on the service access point instance and the information about the service access point instance, and establishing a network connection between the nested network service instance and a member instance in the nested network service instance based on the service access point instance and the information about the service access point instance.
A network service management method, comprising:
- sending, by a first network functions virtualization orchestrator (NFVO), a first request to a second NFVO, wherein the first request is used to request creating a nested network service instance in a composite network service instance and carries information about a service access point instance associated with the nested network service instance;
- receiving, by the second NFVO, the first request sent by the first NFVO;
- and
- establishing, by the second NFVO, a connection between the nested network service instance and the composite network service instance and a connection between the nested network service instance and a member instance in the composite network service instance based on the service access point instance and the information about the service access point instance, and establishing a network connection between the nested network service instance and a member instance in the nested network service instance based on the service access point instance and the information about the service access point instance.
An apparatus, comprising a receiving unit and a processing unit,
- wherein the receiving unit is configured to receive a first request sent by a first network functions virtualization orchestrator (NFVO), wherein the first request is used to request creating a nested network service instance in a composite network service instance and carries information about a service access point instance associated with the nested network service instance, and
- wherein the processing unit is configured to establish a connection between the nested network service instance and the composite network service instance and a connection between the nested network service instance and a member instance in the composite network service instance based on the service access point instance and the information about the service access point instance, and establish a network connection between the nested network service instance and a member instance in the nested network service instance based on the service access point instance and the information about the service access point instance.
