BACKGROUND In the field of telecommunication management, a TeleManagement Forum (TMF) defines asset management as management of information about managed object instances in a telecommunications network, which is usually divided into resource assets, business assets, customer assets, and product assets. Wait for management. However, TMF does not define licensed assets in the communication network. In the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP), asset management refers to the management of the elements of a network element. Its assets are divided into hardware assets, software assets and licensed assets. Among them, the license asset belongs to the management object under the network element. Each license asset contains information such as: license identification, type of license (eg, capacity, specific features, number of users, etc.), provider, expiration date, key, license status, sales unique identifier, and additional information. In the actual network operation process, the current license assets are mainly managed by the equipment vendor. The operator can obtain information about the license assets through the northbound interface of the Element Management System (EMS). However, because the licensed asset directly relates to the maximum configurable capacity of the network element, or whether a specific function is authorized to be opened, the current information about the licensed asset cannot meet the operator's management requirements for the licensed asset. That is to say, the current license asset information only knows the network element to which it belongs by its inclusion relationship, and understands the functional entity associated with the license asset through its attributes, but this does not satisfy the operator's management requirements for the license asset. In view of the problem that the license information of the related technology cannot support the management of the network resources by the operator, an effective solution has not been proposed yet. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION A primary object of the present invention is to provide a management scheme for a license asset to solve at least the problem that the license asset information in the related art cannot support the operator for network resource management.

For example, creating a license asset object contains at least one or all of the following attributes: Licensed capacity, licensed features. Among them, the licensed function can be a list of one or more functions. Preferably, in step S204, determining whether to allow execution of the operation command according to the information in the operation command and the capacity attribute and/or the supported function attribute in the configured license asset may include the following manners: In the command, the information indicating the creation of the capacity-type license asset object is determined, and it is judged whether the number of the capacity-type license asset object and/or the number of users exceeds the range of the capacity attribute in the license asset after executing the operation command, and if so, the operation command is not allowed, otherwise , allowing the execution of the operation command; mode 2, according to the instruction in the operation command to create or modify the information of the functional license asset object, determine whether the parameter of the functional license asset object after the execution of the operation command belongs to the functional attribute supported in the license asset, and if so, The operation command is allowed to be executed. Otherwise, the operation command is not allowed to be executed. Method 3: According to the instruction in the operation command, create or modify the information of the composite license asset object, and determine the number of composite license asset objects and/or the number of users after executing the operation command. Whether it has not exceeded Capacity range of property assets, as well as parameters of complex license assets belonging to the functional properties of the object are licensed assets, if are yes, then allowed to perform the operation command, otherwise not allowed to perform operations command. In the preferred embodiment, the capacity attribute and the function attribute in the license asset may be judged according to the type of the information indicating the creation or modification of the license asset object in the operation command of the network element or the operation command of the performance management, thereby improving the processing of the system.
