Apparatus and method for managing inner-network element transmission resources

摘要

An apparatus for managing inner-network element transmission resources is described. The apparatus includes a resource configuration unit, a resource abstraction unit and a resource sending unit, wherein the resource configuration unit is configured to obtain information of inner-network element transmission resources and to receive a service operation instruction, and to search the resource abstraction unit for an internal path corresponding to the service operation instruction to obtain an operation command for a transmission resource; the resource abstraction unit is configured to perform abstract representation on the information of the transmission resources to obtain internal paths; the resource sending unit is configured to send the operation command for the transmission resource to a corresponding board. A method for managing inner-network element transmission resources is also described. A problem of resource conflicts caused when a management plane and a control plane establish a service simultaneously can be solved by applying the apparatus and method of the disclosure, thus reducing the complexity of operating inner-network element transmission resources by a network management controller and improving the automation capability of the network management controller in service establishment.
