A method for determining and then abstracting the requirements for the interface between virtual network entity or element (VNE) and Network Hypervisor (NHV) is described. The abstraction helps creation of an open and interoperable VNE-NHV environment because suitable interworking Apps for interface can now be easily invoked on the basis of instantaneous demands from the services. Automation of configuration together with assignment of VNEs mitigates the impact of limitation of resources in any network. Once an NHV is created and the VNEs - irrespective of their domains - are attached to it, the VNEs can be utilized by the services seamlessly. |
