Description

一种管理网络功能虚拟化管理编排实体的方法和装置Method and device for managing network function virtualization management orchestration entity

技术领域Technical field

本发明涉及及网络功能虚拟化技术，尤其涉及一种管理网络功能虚拟化管理编排(NFV-MANO，Network Function Virtualization-Management and Orchestration)实体的方法和装置。The present invention relates to a network function virtualization technology, and in particular, to a method and apparatus for managing a Network Function Virtualization-Management and Orchestration (NFV-MANO) entity.

背景技术Background technique

网络功能虚拟化(NFV，Network Functions Virtualization)是一种通过使用通用性硬件以及虚拟化技术来承载其他功能的软件处理技术，旨在降低网络昂贵的设备成本。NFV通过软硬件解耦及功能抽象，使网络设备功能不再依赖于专用硬件，资源可以充分灵活共享，实现新业务的快速开发和部署，并基于实际业务需求进行自动部署、弹性伸缩、故障隔离和自愈等。Network Functions Virtualization (NFV) is a software processing technology that uses other hardware and virtualization technologies to carry other functions to reduce the cost of expensive equipment on the network. NFV decouples and functional abstraction, so that network device functions no longer depend on dedicated hardware. Resources can be fully and flexibly shared, enabling rapid development and deployment of new services, and automatic deployment, elastic scaling, and fault isolation based on actual business requirements. And self-healing.

目前提出的NFV的架构如图1所示，主要包括：业务运营支撑***和管理制成平台(OSS/BSS，Operation-Support System/Business Support System)，、虚拟化的网络功能(VNF，Virtual Network Function)、网络功能虚拟化基础设施(NFVI，Network Function Virtualization Infrastructure)、网络功能虚拟化管理和编排平台(NFV-MANO，NFV-Management and Orchestration)这三部分；在本申请中，将NFV-MANO简写为MANO。其中，NFVI主要负责将计算，存储，网络的硬件资源全面虚拟化，并映射成虚拟资源；VNF则是利用软件来实现各种传统的物理网络功能，VNF运行在NFVI之上，使用的是经过NFVI虚拟化后的各种计算，存储以及网络功能的虚拟资源；MANO负责对NFVI的软硬件资源的生命周期管理和编排，以及对VNF的生命周期管理和编排。The proposed NFV architecture is shown in Figure 1. It mainly includes: business operation support system and management-production system (OSS/BSS, Operation-Support System/Business Support System), and virtualized network functions (VNF, Virtual Network). Function), Network Function Virtualization Infrastructure (NFVI), Network Function Virtualization Management and Orchestration (NFV-MANO, NFV-Management and Orchestration); in this application, NFV-MANO Short for MANO. Among them, NFVI is mainly responsible for fully virtualizing the computing, storage, and network hardware resources and mapping them into virtual resources. VNF uses software to implement various traditional physical network functions. VNF runs on NFVI and uses NFVI virtualized virtual resources for computing, storage, and networking functions; MANO is responsible for lifecycle management and orchestration of NFVI hardware and software resources, as well as lifecycle management and orchestration of VNF.

在MANO架构中包括了网络功能虚拟化编排(NFVO，NFV Orchestration)、VNF管理器(VNFM，VNF Management)和虚拟化基础设备管理***(VIM，Virtual Infrastructure Manager)。其中，NFVO负责网络服务的生命周期管理、跨VIM的NFVI资源调度等功能；VNFM负责VNF实例的生命周期管理，每个VNF实例假设都有一个关联的VNFM；VIM负责控制和管理NFVI计算，存储和网络资源。The MANO architecture includes Network Function Virtualization Orchestration (NFVO, NFV Orchestration), VNF Manager (VNFM, VNF Management), and Virtual Infrastructure Manager (VIM). Among them, NFVO is responsible for the life cycle management of network services, NFVI resource scheduling across VIM; VNFM is responsible for lifecycle management of VNF instances, each VNF instance assumes an associated VNFM; VIM is responsible for controlling and managing NFVI calculations, Storage and network resources.

对于MANO来说，NFVO、VIM和VNFM这些实体可以作为实现网络功能虚拟化的管理节点；而传统管理***中通常是通过网元管理(EM，Element Manage)来对网络功能节点来进行管理，如图1所示，当网络功能虚拟化后，EM主要用于VNF的应用层管理，而目前EM和VNFM之间的参考点Ve-Vnfm-em支持VNF生命周期管理、VNF性能管理、VNF告警管理和VNF配置管理等接口功能，并没有针对VNFM、VIM或NFVO自身进行操作维护管理的相关功能；另一方面OSS和NFVO之间的参考点Os-Ma-nfvo支持网络服务(NS，Network Service)的生命周期管理、NS性能管理和NS告警管理等接口功能，也没有针对VNFM、VIM或NFVO自身进行操作维护管理的相关功能。由于MANO中的这些功能实体节点的性能会直接影响到网络中其它虚拟网络功能的管理，那么就需要针对MANO实体进行操作维护管理。For MANO, entities such as NFVO, VIM, and VNFM can be used as management nodes for virtualizing network functions. In traditional management systems, network function nodes are usually managed by EM (Element Manage), such as As shown in Figure 1, after the network function is virtualized, EM is mainly used for VNF application layer management. Currently, the reference point Ve-Vnfm-em between EM and VNFM supports VNF lifecycle management, VNF performance management, and VNF alarm management. And VNF configuration management and other interface functions, there is no operation and maintenance related functions for VNFM, VIM or NFVO itself; on the other hand, the reference point between OSS and NFVO Os-Ma-nfvo supports network service (NS, Network Service) Interface functions such as lifecycle management, NS performance management, and NS alarm management do not have functions related to operation and maintenance management of VNFM, VIM, or NFVO itself. Since the performance of these functional entity nodes in MANO directly affects the management of other virtual network functions in the network, it is necessary to perform operation and maintenance management for the MANO entity.

通过本示例中两个优选的方案，从而实现了MANO管理功能对自身所管理的MANO实体进行告警管理和性能测量的过程，从而实现了针对MANO实体进行操作维护管理。Through the two preferred schemes in this example, the MANO management function performs the alarm management and performance measurement process for the MANO entity managed by the MANO management function, thereby realizing the operation and maintenance management for the MANO entity.

示例性地，如图4所示的当MANO管理功能部署为NM/OSS中的一部分时，所述MANO管理功能将MAMO实体增加作为被管理对象，具体包括：Illustratively, when the MANO management function is deployed as part of the NM/OSS as shown in FIG. 4, the MANO management function adds the MAMO entity as a managed object, and specifically includes:

NM/OSS建立所述被管理MANO实体对应的管理对象实例；NM/OSS establishes an instance of the management object corresponding to the managed MANO entity;

在本示例中，由于MANO管理功能作为NM/OSS中的一部分，因此，NM/OSS与MANO管理功能所需要执行的步骤进行统一，所以示例中所述的NM/OSS与被管理MANO实体建立初始连接可以认为是步骤S202。In this example, since the MANO management function is part of the NM/OSS, the NM/OSS and the MANO management functions need to be performed in a unified manner, so the NM/OSS described in the example is initialized with the managed MANO entity. The connection can be considered as step S202.

同样，当被管理MANO实体接收到对应的初始配置参数后，就会根据初始配置参数获取与自身具有关联关系的MANO实体，并且与自身具有关联关系的MANO实体进行连接。Similarly, when the managed MANO entity receives the corresponding initial configuration parameters, it acquires the MANO entity associated with itself according to the initial configuration parameters, and connects with the MANO entity having its associated relationship.

需要说明的是，当MANO管理功能为NM/OSS中的一部分时，MANO管理功能对自身所管理的MANO实体进行告警管理和性能测量的过程与前述示例中的两个优选方案相同，唯一的区别是由于MANO管理功能成为了NM/OSS中的一部分，因此，前述示例的两个优选方案中，MANO管理功能与NM/OSS进行交互的过程可以省略，直接由NM/OSS执行自身以及MANO 管理功能所需执行的步骤。It should be noted that when the MANO management function is part of the NM/OSS, the process of performing alarm management and performance measurement on the MANO entity managed by the MANO management function is the same as the two preferred solutions in the foregoing example, the only difference Because the MANO management function becomes part of NM/OSS, in the two preferred schemes of the foregoing example, the process of MANO management function interacting with NM/OSS can be omitted, and NM/OSS executes itself and MANO directly. The steps required to manage the function.

具体地，当需要对MANO实体进行告警管理时，所述方法还包括：Specifically, when the alarm management of the MANO entity is required, the method further includes:

所述NM/OSS给MANO实体发送消息订购MANO实体的告警通知；The NM/OSS sends a message to the MANO entity to subscribe to the alarm notification of the MANO entity;

示例性地，如图5所示的当MANO管理功能部署为独立的实体且另一MANO管理功能同时部署为NM/OSS一部分时，对于所述独立部署的MANO管理功能，所述被管理MANO实体为VNFM和/或VIM；对于所述部署为NM/OSS一部分的MANO管理功能，所述被管理MANO实体为NFVO。Illustratively, as shown in FIG. 5, when the MANO management function is deployed as a separate entity and another MANO management function is simultaneously deployed as part of the NM/OSS, the managed MANO entity is for the independently deployed MANO management function. The VNFM and/or VIM; for the MANO management function that is part of the NM/OSS deployment, the managed MANO entity is NFVO.

所述独立部署的MANO管理功能与所述NM/OSS建立连接后，接收由所述NM/OSS发送的创建指示消息；其中，所述创建指示消息中包括新增的被管理的VNFM和/或VIM的信息；After the independently deployed MANO management function establishes a connection with the NM/OSS, receiving a creation indication message sent by the NM/OSS; wherein the creation indication message includes a newly added VNFM and/or VIM information;

所述独立部署的MANO管理功能在接收到所述创建指示消息后，建立所述新增的被管理的VNFM和/或VIM的管理对象实例；After receiving the creation indication message, the independently deployed MANO management function establishes the management object instance of the newly added VNFM and/or VIM;

所述独立部署的MANO管理功能与新增被管理的VNFM和/或VIM建立连接。The independently deployed MANO management function establishes a connection with the newly added VNFM and/or VIM.

所述部署于NM/OSS的MANO管理功能创建新增的被管理的NFVO对应的管理对象实例；The MANO management function deployed in the NM/OSS creates a new managed object instance corresponding to the managed NFVO;

所述部署于NM/OSS的MANO管理功能与新增的被管理的NFVO建立连接。The MANO management function deployed in NM/OSS establishes a connection with the newly added managed NFVO.

相应地，所述MANO管理功能向新增的被管理MANO实体发送初始配置参数，具体包括： Correspondingly, the MANO management function sends initial configuration parameters to the newly added MANO entity, including:

所述独立部署的MANO管理功能向所述新增的被管理的VNFM和/或VIM发送对应的配置参数；The independently deployed MANO management function sends corresponding configuration parameters to the newly added VNFM and/or VIM;

所述部署于NM/OSS的MANO管理功能向所述新增的被管理的NFVO发送对应的初始配置参数。The MANO management function deployed in the NM/OSS sends a corresponding initial configuration parameter to the newly added managed NFVO.

在本示例中，由于MANO管理功能部署为独立的实体且另一MANO管理功能同时部署为NM/OSS一部分，因此，本示例中的方案为上述两个示例的组合。从而实现向被管理MANO实体发送配置参数。In this example, since the MANO management function is deployed as a separate entity and another MANO management function is simultaneously deployed as part of the NM/OSS, the solution in this example is a combination of the two examples above. Thereby transmitting configuration parameters to the managed MANO entity.
