Abstract
A network functions virtualization management and orchestration system with a VNF descriptor (VNFD) including a information element that allows an instance created based on the VNFD to be distinguished by name. The information element includes an information element of a VM name that describes a naming rule for a virtual machine (VM).
Claims12
A network functions virtualization management and orchestration method comprising:
- receiving information of a template from a storage unit;
- and
- creating an instance based on the information of the template, wherein
- an information element that allows an instance created based on the information of the template to be distinguished by name is provided in the template that is stored in the storage unit.
A network functions virtualization management and orchestration method, comprising:
- providing, in a VNF (Virtualized Network Function) descriptor (VNFD), an information element that gives a naming rule for a name of an instance, to allow an instance created based on information of the VNFD to be distinguished by name.
A network functions virtualization management and orchestration system, comprising:
- an input unit that receives information of a template from a storage unit;
- and
- a creation unit that creates an instance based on the information of the template,
- wherein the template includes an information element that allows an instance created based on the information of the template to be distinguished by name.
A network functions virtualization management and orchestration system comprising:
- a first unit that receives a VNF (Virtualized Network Function) descriptor (VNFD) including an information element that gives a naming rule for a name of an instance;
- and
- a second unit that creates an instance based on information of the VNFD.
A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium storing therein a program causing a computer to execute processing comprising:
- receiving, from a storage unit, a template including an information element that allows an instance created based on information of the received template to be distinguished by name;
- and
- creating an instance based on the information of the received template.
A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium storing therein a program causing a computer to execute processing comprising:
- receiving a VNF (Virtualized Network Function) descriptor (VNFD) with an information element that gives a naming rule for a name of an instance;
- and
- creating an instance based on information of the VNFD.
