Fig. 5 shows network management provided in an embodiment of the present invention, and this method can be applied to Figure 1A and Figure 1B institutes The network architecture shown, it is also possible to applied to other network architectures.Such as applied to the following network architecture:Network Management System is used for Network slice example is managed, Network Management System can include one or more network managers.Element management system can wrap Include EM and/or DM.Network slice example includes multiple network functions and/or multiple sub-networks are sliced.The net of the embodiment of the present invention Network management method is to the network architecture and is not construed as limiting.As shown in figure 5, this method comprises the following steps:
501st, Network Management System sends the request of configuration warning information to Element management system, and Element management system is corresponding Receive the request of configuration warning information.The request of the configuration warning information includes the warning information of corresponding network slice example Parameter.
Warning information refers to receive its network function and/or son for being managed as the EM in Element management system and/or DM After the Trouble Report of network slice example, the warning information generated (AlarmInformation) is needed, which can be with It is stored in the alarm list (AlarmList) of EM and/or DM.AlarmInformation is one and contains one or more parameters Set, each parameter may there are one or multiple elements, the value of each element have different determining methods (for example, calculating side Method).The parameter of warning information can include one or more of following:Failure seriousness (PerceivedSeverity) is joined Number, fault trend (trendIndication) parameter, fault threshold (thresholdInfo) parameter, monitored attribute (monitoredAttributes) parameter and repair action (proposedRepairActions) parameter proposed.These parameters It can include one or more elements, each element can have different determining methods (for example, computational methods). PerceivedSeverity parameters are used to indicate the emergency of failure.PerceivedSeverity parameters can include member Element, the value of the element can be (Critical) of the utmost importance, important (Major), secondary (Minor), warning (Warning), no Determining (Indeterminate) and (Cleared) that removes etc..TrendIndication parameters are used to indicate failure feelings Condition is improving, and degenerates or does not change.ThresholdInfo parameters be used for notify EMS needs monitor the mark of index, with And the corresponding threshold value of index.During EMS report and alarm information, mark, the threshold value setting of the performance indicator for crossing threshold value can be reported It is worth and crosses the observation of threshold value.The monitored attribute that monitoredAttributes parameters change for mark.Propose Repair action parameter is used to show the repair action that EMS proposes.More than five parameters be only citing, the embodiment of the present invention do not limit In above-mentioned parameter is only configured, the parameter of warning information may also include other parameter.The parameter of above-mentioned warning information is all corresponding Network slice example.When Element management system receives the failure report of managed network function and/or sub-network slice example After announcement, the warning information of corresponding network slice example will be determined according to the Trouble Report.
Network function and/or sub-network the slice example managed in Element management system is that some particular network slice is real In the case that example is exclusive, then the parameter that the warning information included by the request of warning information is configured in step 501 is exactly that this is specific The parameter of the warning information of network slice example.Optionally, the particular network can also be included by being configured in the request of warning information It is sliced the identification information of example.The identification information of particular network slice example can be embodied in the form of parameter, can also element Form embody.For example, when the parameter of warning information includes additional information (additionalText), it can also increase network and cut The element of the identification information of piece example.
Network function and/or sub-network the slice example managed in Element management system is that at least two networks slice is real In the case of being shared between example, then the parameter that the warning information included by the request of warning information is configured in step 501 is exactly pair Should at least two networks slice example warning information parameter.Correspondingly, being configured in the request of warning information can include The identification information of at least two network slice example and the warning information for corresponding at least two network slice example respectively Parameter.At least two network slice example identification information can be embodied in the form of parameter, can also element form body It is existing.For example, when the parameter of warning information includes additional information (additionalText), it can also increase by least two network It is sliced the element of the identification information of example.For the parameter of warning information, at least two elements can also be included, to embody this At least two networks are sliced the warning information of example.For example, for PerceivedSeverity parameters, can include multiple Element, the value that each element can take are Critical, Major, Minor, Warning, Indeterminate, Cleared Deng.Each element and a network slice example correspond to, and show influence of the failure to network slice example.Network function or Influence of the identical failure to heterogeneous networks slice example occurs on sub-network slice example may be different.Optionally, alarm letter The parameter of breath may also include the determining method of influence of the failure to heterogeneous networks slice example service, such as the calculating of the value of element Method.For trendIndication parameters, multiple elements can also be included, the value of each element represents accordingly The situation of network slice example is improving, and degenerates or does not change.For thresholdInfo parameters, can also include Multigroup element represents the performance indicator for crossing threshold value of the monitoring of corresponding network slice example per the value of constituent element element respectively Mark, set threshold value and the observation for crossing threshold value.In each group element, set threshold value, the property for crossing threshold value of monitoring The mark of energy index may be different from, it is also possible to identical.For monitoredAttributes parameters, can also include Multiple elements, the value of each element represent the attribute of the hope monitoring of corresponding network slice example, the value of these elements It may be identical, it is also possible to different.For proposedRepairActions parameters, multiple elements can also be included, represented not The desirable correcting strategy of example is sliced with network.For example, it copies ammeter and copies two of hazardous chemical storage temperature inductor When network slice example shares consolidated network function or sub-network slice example, when the network function or sub-network slice example hair After raw failure, the former does not require to repair immediately, and the latter may require being sliced using backup network function or backup sub-network immediately Example waits the network function to break down or is switched back again after sub-network slice example reparation.More than parameter is only citing, this Invention is not limited to that above-mentioned parameter is only configured.
The identification information of network slice example may be there are many form, such as identification information to be sliced for number or by network The mark of the type of example and exclusive characteristic (Slice Differentiator, the abbreviation SD) composition of slice example, the present invention It does not limit.The parameter of the warning information of at least two network slice example can be the same or different.In warning information Parameter include network slice example identification information, can by warning information increase parameter form realize, should Parameter is the identification information of network slice example;Or can be realized by increasing the form of element in original parameter, it should Element is the identification information of network slice example.For example, if the parameter of warning information includes additional information (additionalText) parameter can then increase the identification information of an element, i.e. network slice example.
There are many reason of triggering step 501 is possible, illustrated below by way of example.A kind of situation may It is:EMS has sent alarm configuration request, the correspondingly received alarm configuration request of Network Management System to Network Management System. Warning information is configured for the Network Management System to be asked to be sent to the Element management system in the alarm configuration request Request.This situation is likely to occur in when EM and/or DM restarts.Another situation may be that network function has occurred And/or establishment and the initial configuration of sub-network slice example.The network function and/or sub-network slice example establishment and Initial configuration can be happened in situations below:I) network slice instantiation;Ii) extension of network slice example and increase network Function/sub-network slice example;Or iii) network slice example updates and New-deployed Network function/sub-network slice example substitution is former There is network function/sub-network slice example.The network function and/or sub-network slice example may be at least two networks slice Network function and/or sub-network that example is shared slice example, it is also possible to the exclusive network function of certain network slice example and/ Or sub-network slice example.
502nd, the parameter of warning information is configured according to the request that warning information is configured in EMS.Specifically, the corresponding net of EMS configurations The parameter of the warning information of network slice example,
503rd, EMS sends a warning message configure-ack to Network Management System, the correspondingly received alarm letter of Network Management System Cease configure-ack.Warning information configure-ack can be used for mark EMS and complete warning information configuration.
By step 501-503, the configuration of warning information can be completed.Network function and/or sub-network is made to be sliced example When breaking down, Element management system can generate satisfactory fault warning information, in order to which Network Management System can be from The influence for the service to network slice example of being out of order is analyzed in warning information.Exclusive network function and/or sub-network are cut Piece example, Network Management System can know shadow of the failure to exclusive network function/sub-network slice example from warning information It rings.To shared network function and/or sub-network slice example, Network Management System can differentiate failure and each network is sliced in fact The Different Effects of example, so as to which operator be helped faster positioning failure reason, focusing critical failure to ensure key service.
504th, when the EMS network functions managed and/or sub-network slice example break down when, network function and/or Sub-network slice example reporting fault, which is reported, gives management its EMS.The specifying information of failure can be included in the Trouble Report.It should Failure may be hardware fault, software fault, network function failure, overload, interrupted communication link or virtualization dependent failure Deng.
505th, after EMS receives Trouble Report, the failure in Trouble Report is analyzed to using the network function and/or sub-network The influence of service run on the network slice example of slice example, and according to the warning information in the request of configuration warning information Parameter configuration generates corresponding warning information (AlarmInformation), is stored in alarm list (AlarmList).
Optionally, above-mentioned network management is also possible that following steps:
506th, Network Management System to Element management system send a warning message configuration modification notice, Element management system phase Warning information configuration modification notice should be received.The warning information configuration modification notice includes the adjustment of the parameter of warning information, The adjustment of the parameter of warning information is corresponding network slice example.
Extension, contraction, the update of network function and/or sub-network slice example can trigger the announcement of corresponding network slice example The adjustment of alert information configuration.The extension of network function and/or sub-network slice example can be happened at network slice example extension When, specifically, extended network function and/or sub-network slice example include extending its computing resource, storage resource, network money Source.When the contraction of network function and/or sub-network slice example can be happened at network slice example contraction, specifically, receive Contracting network function and/or sub-network slice example include shrinking its computing resource, storage resource, Internet resources.Network function and/ Or sub-network slice example update can be happened at network slice example update when, specifically, update network function and/or Sub-network slice example includes updating its software version.
After network function and/or sub-network slice example expansion/contraction/update, consider failure to the network corresponding to it The influence of example is sliced, Network Management System can send to the EMS for managing the network function and/or sub-network slice example and accuse Alert information configuration amendment advice.Warning information configuration modification notice includes at least one of following:Adjust PerceivedSeverity The obtaining value method of corresponding network slice example in parameter;Adjust the need of corresponding network slice example in thresholdInfo parameters The corresponding threshold value of mark or index for the index to be monitored;Adjust the monitoredAttributes of corresponding network slice example Monitoring value;Adjust the repair action to failure of corresponding network slice example in proposedRepairActions;Adjustment In trendIndication corresponding network slice example to evaluation criterion of variation tendency etc..The present invention is not limited to only to upper State parameter adjustment, it is also possible to which other parameter is adjusted.Network function and/or the extension of sub-network slice example are shunk, more After new, the influence that identical failure services it may be different.It is notified, can preferably embodied by warning information configuration modification Failure is sliced example the network after changing caused by the extension, contraction, update of network function and/or sub-network slice example Influence.
When new one network slice example of establishment is needed using already present network function and/or sub-network slice example When, it needs that the network function and/or sub-network slice example is configured, is allowed to provide clothes for network slice example Business.The configuration can trigger Network Management System and send alarm letter to the EMS for managing the network function and/or sub-network slice example Cease configuration modification notice.Warning information configuration modification notice includes:Increasing member in the parameter of warning information, usually mark is new The network slice example of establishment.For example, increasing element in PerceivedSeverity parameters, which is used to indicate failure For the influence degree of network slice example newly created;Increase element in thresholdInfo parameters, which shows needle Mark, threshold value, the specific performance for the monitoring of network slice example newly created being more than the performance indicator of threshold value refer to target value; Increase element in trendIndication parameters, which is sliced example for indicating failure for the network newly created Influence situation of change;Increase element in monitoredAttributes parameters, which is sliced for indicating the new network that creates Example needs to monitor the parameter of variation;Increase element in proposedRepairActions parameters, which is used to indicate new wound The restorative procedure that the network slice example built is taken.It is merely illustrative of above, it may be in one or more of above-mentioned parameter It is middle to increase the corresponding element of network slice example newly created.Be also possible that increases the corresponding net newly created in other parameter Network is sliced the element of example, such as increases element in the identification information of network slice example, which is used to indicate new establishment Network slice example.It is notified by warning information configuration modification, embodies failure in the warning information that can be reported in follow-up EMS For the influence of the service of network slice example newly created.
When a network slice example has used shared network function and/or sub-network to be sliced example, and this network is cut When piece example terminates, it is impossible to the shared network function of termination and/or sub-network slice example, but need to share network function to this And/or sub-network slice example is configured, the relationship for it and the network slice example that terminates.The configuration can trigger network pipe Reason system to manage the network function and/or sub-network slice example EMS send a warning message configuration modification notice.The alarm Information configuration amendment advice includes:The member for indicating the network being terminated slice example is deleted in the parameter of warning information Element.Such as:Element is deleted in PerceivedSeverity parameters, which denotes failure and the network being terminated is cut The influence degree of piece example;Element is deleted in thresholdInfo parameters, it is real which denotes the network slice being terminated The monitoring of example is more than that mark, threshold value, the specific performance of the performance indicator of threshold value refer to target value;Join in trendIndication Additions and deletions remove element in number, which denotes the influence situation of change that failure is sliced the network being terminated example; Element is deleted in monitoredAttributes parameters, which, which denotes the network slice example being terminated and need to monitor, becomes The parameter of change;Element is deleted in proposedRepairActions parameters, which denotes the network slice example being terminated The restorative procedure taken.It is merely illustrative of above, correspondence may be deleted in one or more of above-mentioned parameter and is terminated Network slice example element.It is also possible that and the corresponding member of network slice example being terminated is deleted in other parameter Element, such as element is deleted in the identification information of network slice example, which is sliced example for indicating the network being terminated. It is notified by warning information configuration modification, failure is no longer embodied in the warning information that can be reported in follow-up EMS for being terminated Network slice example service influence.
507th, EMS is notified according to warning information configuration modification, changes the configuration of the parameter of warning information.
508th, EMS to Network Management System send a warning message configuration modification confirm, the correspondingly received announcement of Network Management System Alert information configuration modification confirms.The warning information configuration modification confirmation is used to indicate EMS and is repaiied according to warning information configuration Change the configuration modification for the parameter for asking the warning information for having carried out network slice example.
Optionally, it is also possible to re-start step 504 and 505 after step 508.
It is notified by warning information configuration modification, the parameter of warning information can be adjusted, be beneficial to EMS according to network function And/or the Trouble Report of sub-network slice example feeds back network function and/or sub-network is sliced what example serviced it now Network is sliced the influence of example.
Fig. 6 shows another network management provided in an embodiment of the present invention.As shown in fig. 6, the network management side Method may include steps of:
601st, Network Management System is sent to EMS obtains alarm quantity (getAlarmCount) request.Correspondingly, EMS connects Receive the request.GetAlarmCount requests are sliced the alarm quantity of example for acquisition request corresponding network.Corresponding network is sliced The alarm quantity of example refers to the alarm quantity for meeting the warning information parameter of corresponding network slice example.
