In this application. For the sake of brevity, the entire contents are not repeated in the original application.

技术领域Technical field

本申请涉及通信技术领域，尤其涉及一种管理传输网切片的方法、装置及***。The present application relates to the field of communications technologies, and in particular, to a method, device, and system for managing a transport network slice.

背景技术Background technique

随着通信技术的发展，未来人与人、人与物以及物与物之间的连接，会出现各种丰富多样的通信业务，不同的通信业务对移动性、安全性、容量、覆盖率、时延和可靠性等网络性能的需求存在显著的区别。若针对每种通信业务建立特定的网络，虽然可以很好的满足各种通信业务的需求，但是成本太高难以实现；若将不同需求的通信业务承载于相同的网络，则会因为通信业务需求的较大差异性导致通信业务的服务质量(Quality of Service，QoS)显著下降。With the development of communication technology, in the future, the connection between people, people and things, and things, there will be a variety of diverse communication services, different communication services for mobility, security, capacity, coverage, There is a significant difference in the need for network performance such as latency and reliability. If a specific network is established for each communication service, although the requirements of various communication services can be well met, the cost is too high to be realized; if the communication services of different requirements are carried on the same network, the communication service needs The large difference in the quality of service (QoS) of the communication service is significantly reduced.

在上述背景下，下一代移动网络联盟(Next Generation Mobile Networking，NGMN)在第五代移动通信***(the fifth generation，5G)的基础上，引入了网络切片(Network Slice，NS)的概念，以应对不同通信业务对网络性能需求的差异。网络切片是由一组网络功能、运行这些网络功能的资源以及这些网络功能的特定配置所组成的逻辑网络功能实体的集合，即在同一物理基础设施上，利用软件定义网络(Software Defined Network，SDN)以及网络功能虚拟化(Network Function Virtualization，NFV)等技术，按需建立不同的网络切片，不同的网络切片对应不同的应用场景，旨在为特定通信业务提供一系列所需的网络服务。其中，网络切片之间实现逻辑的隔离，任何一个网络切片的拥塞、过载、配置的调整不影响其它网络切片，且网络切片可动态伸缩和删除。Under the above background, Next Generation Mobile Networking (NGMN) introduced the concept of Network Slice (NS) based on the fifth generation mobile communication system (5G). Coping with the differences in network performance requirements of different communication services. A network slice is a collection of logical network functional entities consisting of a set of network functions, resources that run these network functions, and specific configurations of those network functions, ie, Software Defined Network (SDN) on the same physical infrastructure. And technologies such as Network Function Virtualization (NFV), which establish different network slices on demand. Different network slices correspond to different application scenarios, and are designed to provide a series of required network services for specific communication services. Among them, the network slices are logically isolated. The congestion, overload, and configuration adjustment of any one network slice does not affect other network slices, and the network slice can be dynamically expanded and deleted.

现有网络切片方案主要集中在核心网和接入网，对传输网(Transport Network)内网络切片的研究比较匮乏，以下为方便描述，将传输网内的网络切片简称为传输网切片。目前，端到端的网络切片由网络切片管理器进行管理控制，且可借助NFV等技术共享同一传输网。下面以一种可能存在的场景为例对端到端的网络切片共享传输网进行说明，如图1所示，图1中示出两个已进行网络切片的网络，分别为网络A和网络B(网络A、网络B可能是核心网或接入网)，其中，网络A和网络B共享同一传输网，且由同一网络切片管理器进行管理(实际应用中，网络A和网络B可由不同的网络切片管理器进行管理)，网络切片的管理本质是对网络资源的整合和编排。网络A和网络B包括的不同网络切片能够满足不同的业务需求，而传输网是连接端到端的网络切片的桥梁，为了保证不同网络切片的业务需求，需要在传输网内建立网络切片，以使传输网切片为端到端的网络切片提供满足端到端网络切片业务需求的隧道路径，即，使得传输网的网络资源与关联的端到端的网络切片的性能指标相匹配。The existing network tiling scheme is mainly concentrated on the core network and the access network, and the research on the network splicing in the transport network is relatively scarce. The following is a convenient description, and the network slice in the transport network is simply referred to as a transport network slice. Currently, end-to-end network slices are managed and controlled by the network slice manager, and the same transmission network can be shared by technologies such as NFV. The following describes an end-to-end network slice sharing transmission network by taking a possible scenario as an example. As shown in FIG. 1 , two networks that have been network sliced are shown in FIG. 1 , which are network A and network B respectively. Network A and network B may be core networks or access networks. Network A and network B share the same transmission network and are managed by the same network slice manager. In actual applications, network A and network B may be different networks. The slice manager is managed. The management of network slicing is the integration and arrangement of network resources. Network A and network B include different network slices to meet different service requirements. The transmission network is a bridge connecting end-to-end network slices. In order to ensure the service requirements of different network slices, network slices need to be established in the transmission network. The transport network slice provides an end-to-end network slice with a tunnel path that meets the end-to-end network slicing service requirements, ie, matches the network resources of the transport network with the performance metrics of the associated end-to-end network slice.

目前，现有的一些网络技术(例如，SDN、NFV等技术)已可实现支持在传输网内建立网络切片，而保证端到端网络切片业务需求的关键在于如何运用传输网切片，即如何保证传输网与端到端的网络之间的交互是保证业务需求的关键，而现有技术中传输网不能很好的支持与网络切片管理器的交互，进而无法保证端到端网络切片的业务需求。At present, some existing network technologies (for example, SDN, NFV, etc.) have been able to support the establishment of network slicing in the transport network, and the key to ensuring the end-to-end network slicing service demand is how to use the transport network slicing, that is, how to ensure The interaction between the transport network and the end-to-end network is the key to ensuring the service requirements. In the prior art, the transport network cannot support the interaction with the network slice manager, and the service requirements of the end-to-end network slicing cannot be guaranteed.

The transmission network 1 is connected to the network A and the network B, and is responsible for data transmission between the network A and the network B. The transmission network 2 is connected to the network A and the network C, and is responsible for data transmission between the network A and the network C. In this embodiment, Two or more networks connecting the transport network are referred to as end-to-end networks, for example, network A and network B are referred to as end-to-end networks of transport network 1.

According to the location of the transmission network in the network, the transmission network can be divided into an intra-domain transmission network and an inter-domain transmission network, wherein the intra-domain transmission network refers to a transmission network between the data center in the access network and the data center in the core network. Or refers to a transmission network between data centers in different networks managed by the same network slice manager.

As can be seen from FIG. 2, the transmission network 2 between the data center in the network A and the data center in the network C is an intra-domain transmission network. If the data centers in the network A and the network B are managed by the same network slice manager, the connection network A and The transmission network 1 of the network B is an intra-domain transmission network. If the data centers in the network A and the network B are managed by different network slice managers, the transmission network 1 connecting the network A and the network B is a cross-domain transmission network. In the communication scenario shown in FIG. 2, the network resources of the transport network slice in the transport network 1 and the transport network 2 need to match the performance indicators of the associated end-to-end network slice to ensure the network requirements of the end-to-end network slice, and further Meet the business needs of different terminal services. In the prior art, the transport network slice does not support the service requirements of the network slice managed by the network slice manager.
