Background technology
At present, existed (promptly for ITU-NGN resource allocation and controlled function subsystem, resource accommodating control function, definition RACF) (Y.RACF (Y.2111) standard) and based on the definition (Y.MPLS-RACF standard) of the RACF of multiprotocol label path traffic engineering (MPLS-TE).
Fig. 1 shows the structure according to the RACF of correlation technique.
In structure shown in Figure 1, comprise following functional unit: transmit resource and carry out functional unit (Transport Resource Enforcement Function Entity, TRE-FE), policy enforcement function unit (Policy Enforcement Function Entity, PE-FE), transmit resource control function units (Transport Resource Control Function Entity, TRC-FE), strategy decisive function unit (Policy Decision Function Entity, PD-FE), and resource accommodating control function (Resource Admission ControlFunction, RACF).
The function of each interface between the above-mentioned functions unit is as follows: the Rc interface is responsible for transmitting the network topology of network (Transport Functions) and the collection and the resource operating position in the network operation process of resource information collected feedback;
The Rs interface is responsible for service control layer (SCF) and is carried out the relevant mutual of service conversation abstract resource request with the strategy decisive function unit (PD-FE) that transmits network control preparative layer (RACF);
The Rt interface be responsible for strategy decisive function unit PD-FE with transmit request that net resource control function units (TRC-FE) carries out the session Internet resources and distribution relevant alternately;
The Ri interface is responsible for the cross-domain communication between the PD-FE;
The Rp interface is responsible for the intra-area communication between the TRC-FE.
Yet, in the definition of RACF and definition based on the RACF of MPLS-TE, all be not specifically defined the flow process of detailed multiprotocol label path label switching path (MPLS LSP) tunnel foundation and the mode of resource allocation, just pointed out transmission resource control function units (TRC-FE) the maintaining network topological sum resource information among the RACF, MPLS lsp tunnel static state is set up and the concrete mode of Resource Allocation in Networks and do not describe, this obviously can hinder Virtual network operator provides abundant more business to the user, and providing of broadband services is provided.
So far, effective solution is not proposed as yet at above-mentioned defective.
Summary of the invention
