Specific embodiment
A specific embodiment of the invention is described below, in order to facilitate understanding by those skilled in the art this hair It is bright, it should be apparent that the present invention is not limited to the ranges of specific embodiment, for those skilled in the art, As long as various change is in the spirit and scope of the present invention that the attached claims limit and determine, these variations are aobvious and easy See, all are using the innovation and creation of present inventive concept in the column of protection.
The flow chart of virtual network function dispositions method one embodiment of service function chain is shown with reference to Fig. 1, Fig. 1; As shown in Figure 1, the method comprising the steps of 101 to step 108.
In a step 101, the topological diagram of service function chain and bottom-layer network is obtained;A is service function chain in Fig. 4, and b is bottom Layer network topology, as shown in a in Fig. 4, a service function chain SFC request includes a series of void being together in series by virtual link Quasi- network function VNF, source node s, a destination node t, and connect these nodes and the virtual link of VNF.
The present invention uses SR=(NS,LS, s, t) and indicate SFC request, whereinIt indicates Network function set, | NS| indicate the function quantity in request.Indicate the link set of SFC, | LS| Indicate the number of links in request service.Subscript s and t in request SR respectively indicate the source point and destination node of request, they Indicate two different nodes in bottom-layer network, and the two nodes do not have any resource requirement.
Bottom-layer network is by being distributed in the different bottom layer node in multiple geographical locations and connecting the physical link of these nodes Composition.Bottom-layer network includes router, interchanger, server and physical link.Each bottom layer node has a series of service function Can, these nodes contain corresponding Resource Properties, and same every physical link all has corresponding bandwidth resources capacity etc..At this Bottom-layer network figure is used into G in inventionP=(VP,EP) mathematic(al) representation indicate, wherein bottom-layer network model use existing GT- The WaxMan2 of ITM is generated at random, whereinIndicate bottom-layer network node set, | VP| indicate bottom The quantity of network node; Indicate the set in bottom-layer network in (when out-degree), | EP| indicate physics The quantity of link.
In a step 102, the source point of service function chain and purpose vertex are deployed in the respective nodes of bottom-layer network, and Successively choose the virtual network function that do not dispose in service function chain;Service function chain in Fig. 4 shown in a, is taken for the first time When function chain of being engaged in deployment, other than the source point of service function chain and purpose vertex, VNF1 to VNF3 is the virtual net that do not dispose Network function.
In step 103, when current virtual network function is not the last one virtual network function in service function chain When, calculate vertex set in each vertex to service function chain source point reliability value.
In one embodiment of the invention, calculate vertex set in each vertex to service function chain source point it is reliable The calculation method 200 of property value includes:
In step 201, vertex set and current source point are obtained, and vertex set to be updated is made to be equal to vertex set;By In service function chain source point s and destination node t after the respective nodes of bottom-layer network are disposed, carry out virtual network function When can dispose, current source point when initial is the source point of service function chain.
In step 202, all out-degree sides for traversing current source point judge current out-degree side remaining bandwidth resource and out-degree Whether the purpose vertex on side is all satisfied the first default constraint condition;As shown in b in Fig. 4, the out-degree side of node A is respectively AF, AE And AB, node F, E and B are respectively the purpose vertex of out-degree side AF, AE and AB.
When implementation, the default constraint condition of this programme preferably first is greater than or equal to for current out-degree side remaining bandwidth resource to be needed Be deployed in out-degree while virtual link required for bandwidth resources and the purpose vertex when out-degree of current source point belong to it is to be updated Vertex set.
In step 203, if satisfied, calculate current source point to service function chain source point reliability value, current out-degree While reliability value and out-degree while purpose vertex attribute reliability value three product as the second calculated value.
For current source point be service function chain source point when, the reliability value of the source point of current source point to service function chain The as attribute reliability value of source point of service function chain itself, the value are the reliability value of each node inherently, It will not change with the update of network.
In step 204, when the second calculated value is simultaneously greater than the purpose vertex to the source of service function chain on current out-degree side When the reliability value of point and user it is expected the reliability value reached, the purpose vertex on current out-degree side is updated using the second calculated value To the reliability value of the source point of service function chain.
When being unsatisfactory for above-mentioned condition for the second calculated value, then the purpose vertex on corresponding out-degree side is not updated to service function The reliability value of the source point of chain.
In step 205, when all out-degree sides of current source point have traversed completion, using all out-degree sides of current source point Meet the current source point of vertex update of the second default constraint condition in purpose vertex, and deletes current in vertex set to be updated Source point.
When implementation, the default constraint condition of the second of this programme can be maximum for reliability value, or load factor is most It is small.
The calculation formula of the load factor introduced during virtual network function deployment are as follows:
Wherein, δ is load factor;For vertex viRemaining computing resource capacity;For vertex viOut-degree side;For Vertex viOut-degree line set;For vertex viAn out-degree side remaining bandwidth resource;For vertex viTo the road of source point All bandwidth resources expenses on diameter;VPFor the vertex set in bottom-layer network.
Effect of this programme to two kinds of situations of the second default constraint condition is illustrated below:
Assuming that the reliability that user requires is 0.90 when progress service function chain is disposed, scheme with reference to the b in Fig. 4, If selecting the current source point of the maximum vertex update of reliability value in vertex, finally formed clothes in step 101 to step 108 The deployment path of business functional link is the reliability of service function forward-path 2 (AECH) deployment scheme in the b figure in Fig. 4 It is 0.97, resource overhead is 232.
If selecting in the purpose vertex on all out-degree sides of current source point load factor in step 101 to step 108 most The current source point of small vertex update, the deployment path of finally formed service function link are the service function in the b figure in Fig. 4 Energy forward-path 1 (AFGEDH), the reliability of the deployment scheme are 0.94, and resource overhead is 202.
It can thus be seen that carrying out virtual network function using the current source point of the maximum vertex update of reliability value in vertex Deployment, to user come for, network is more smooth, have better user experience, for network operator TSPs, will It can more costly CAPEX (fund expenditure) and OPEX (operational overhead).
It is this using the current source point of the smallest vertex update of load factor in the purpose vertex on all out-degree sides of current source point Mode is to be re-introduced into load factor under the premise of meeting user and it is expected the reliability value reached, and load factor minimum can make often The load on a vertex is more balanced, can suitably reduce network reliability of service under the premise of guaranteeing user dependability demand, Bottom-layer network load can be made lighter, bottom-layer network will handle more requests, will will be greatly reduced network operator in this way The CAPEX (fund expenditure) and OPEX (operational overhead) of TSPs, to improve resource utilization.
In step 206, when vertex set to be updated is nonvoid set, continue all out-degree sides for traversing current source point, Until vertex set to be updated is empty set, obtain later each vertex in vertex set (other than the source point of service function chain, His each vertex is the purpose vertex on an out-degree side, for details, reference can be made in Fig. 4 b figure) arrive service function chain source point Reliability value.
At step 104, the non-purpose vertex in vertex set is traversed, when non-purpose vertex meets default constraint, then Its vertex is updated using the reliability value of the source point on vertex to service function chain and presets reliability value.
Each vertex in this programme can have a vertex to preset reliability value, and reliability is preset on the vertex on each vertex Value may have differences, and this programme, when disposing to each virtual network function, it is equal that reliability value is preset on vertex It can initialize.
When implementation, the preferably default calculating capacity for being constrained to non-purpose vertex of this programme is greater than or equal to network virtual function Required calculating capacity, and the reliability value of source point of the non-purpose vertex to service function chain is greater than its vertex and presets reliability Value.
In step 105, when non-purpose vertex all in vertex set have traversed, then all non-purpose vertex are chosen In maximum vertex preset the corresponding non-purpose vertex of reliability value and dispose current virtual network function, and delete in vertex set Maximum vertex preset the corresponding non-purpose vertex of reliability value.
In step 106, when current virtual network function is the last one virtual network function in service function chain, Calculate current vertex in vertex set to purpose vertex reliability value and the source point of current vertex to service function chain it is reliable First calculated value of the product of property value as current vertex.
The reliability value on current vertex to purpose vertex is current vertex between purpose vertex in vertex set herein The product of the attribute reliability value on all vertex on all out-degree sides and chain road of chain road.
In step 107, all vertex in vertex set are traversed, when vertex, which meets, to impose a condition, then using current The ratio of the attribute reliability value of first calculated value and current vertex on vertex updates the given threshold of current vertex.
The set-up mode that given threshold herein presets reliability value with the vertex mentioned in step 104 is substantially the same, i.e., Each vertex in this programme can have a given threshold, and the vertex threshold value on each vertex may have differences, and When disposing to each virtual network function, vertex threshold value can initialize this programme;But given threshold with Identical parameter can be set into the initial value that reliability value is preset on vertex.
When implementation, this programme preferably sets the calculating capacity that condition is vertex and is greater than or equal to needed for network virtual function Capacity is calculated, and the ratio of the attribute reliability value on the first calculated value and vertex is greater than or equal to given threshold.
In step 108, when vertex all in vertex set have traversed, then maximum setting in all vertex is chosen The last one virtual network function is disposed on vertex corresponding to threshold value, and exporting includes the vertex for disposing all virtual network functions Collection, the set of paths of virtual link deployment, on path forward node deployment scheme.
It is disposed using in this programme step 101 to the network that step 108 carries out, has comprehensively considered network reliability of service And the CAPEX (fund expenditure) and OPEX (operational overhead) of network operator TSPs, but in the deployment scheme formed, some are empty Quasi- chain road is there are some forward node, and the presence of forward node also will affect the CAPEX of network operator TSPs, and (fund is opened Pin) and OPEX (operational overhead).
In order to further decrease the CAPEX (fund expenditure) and OPEX (operational overhead) of network operator TSPs, when implementation, The virtual network function dispositions method of this programme preferred service function chain further includes the deployment formed to step 101 to step 108 Scheme optimizes, and specific optimization method 300 includes:
In step 301, the smallest link of bandwidth in service function chain is obtained in deployment scheme, and computation bandwidth is the smallest The number of links that link includes in total to purpose vertex;
In step 302, when number of links is greater than zero, the purpose virtual network function of the smallest link of bandwidth is obtained extremely All virtual network function composition function set between the purpose vertex of service function chain;
In step 303, judge between the purpose vertex of service function chain and the last one virtual network function and function It whether there is forward node between two neighboring virtual network function in capable of gathering;
In step 304, and if it exists, then when the available computational resources of forward node are greater than or equal to adjacent service function chain Purpose vertex virtual network function required computing resource, and the virtual net on the purpose vertex of adjacent service function chain After network function is mobile, the residue of the position disposed to all links between a virtual network function deployed position thereon Bandwidth resources are greater than or the virtual network function and a virtual network thereon on the purpose vertex equal to adjacent service function chain When the bandwidth demand of the virtual link between function, the virtual network function on the purpose vertex of adjacent service function chain is deployed in On the forward node on the purpose vertex of adjacent service function chain, and number of links is reduced one.
It in step 305, include the top for disposing all virtual network functions after output optimization when number of links is equal to zero Point set, the set of paths of virtual link deployment, on path forward node deployment scheme.
Method is optimized to deployment scheme and is described in detail in conjunction with specific example below with reference to Fig. 4:
As shown in a figure in Fig. 4, it is assumed that the virtual chain that the bandwidth on the virtual link of VNF1 to VNF2 is 5, VNF2 to VNF3 The bandwidth of road is that the bandwidth on the virtual link of 15, VNF3 to purpose vertex t is 20, using the portion of step 101 to step 108 The deployment scheme that arranging method is formed is the service function forward-path 1 (AFGEDH) of b figure in Fig. 4, and VNF1 is deployed on node F, VNF2 is deployed on node G, and VNF3 is deployed on node E.
By the bandwidth on virtual link it can be concluded that the bandwidth on the virtual link of VNF1 to VNF2 is minimum, bandwidth is the smallest Link to purpose vertex includes that virtual link then has VNF1 to VNF2, VNF2 to VNF3, VNF3 to purpose vertex t, link in total Number position 3.
The purpose virtual network function of the smallest link of bandwidth is to all virtual nets between the purpose vertex of service function chain Network function composition function consolidation function set has VNF2 and VNF3.Found by the way of step 303 VNF3 to purpose vertex t it Between there are a forward node D, need whether the available computational resources for judging forward node D are greater than or equal to needed for VNF3 at this time The computing resource wanted, and after VNF3 is mobile, the position D disposed to virtual network function VNF2 deployed position thereon it Between the remaining bandwidth resources of all links (GED) whether to be greater than or equal to VNF3 and the virtual link of a VNF2 thereon VNF3 is then deployed on node D, and subtract one for number of links by bandwidth demand if two conditions above are all satisfied.
For whether there is forward node between virtual network function two neighboring in function set using above-mentioned identical Mode carries out virtual network function and redeploys, and after can also first deploying the last one virtual network function, is disposing other Virtual network function.
Assuming that all forward node all meet two conditions in 304, then excellent to step 305 eventually by step 301 Deployment scheme after change are as follows: VNF1 is deployed on node F, and VNF2 is deployed on node E, and VNF3 is deployed on node D.
After optimizing in this way to deployment scheme, which can save 15 bandwidth, considerably reduce The CAPEX (fund expenditure) and OPEX (operational overhead) of network operator TSPs.
