Abstract

La présente invention concerne un procédé et un dispositif destinés à l'envoi d'un message. Le procédé consiste : à acquérir un type de message du message de communication, si un message de communication d'un élément de réseau est reçu lorsqu'une fonction de réseau virtualisée (VNF) est dans une capacité de contraction élastique ; à déterminer, en fonction du type de message du message de communication, un module DEP cible destiné à traiter le message de communication ; et à envoyer le message de communication au module DEP cible. La présente invention résout le problème technique dans l'état de la technique associé, selon lequel un transfert de message ne peut pas être effectué en raison de la caractéristique de la capacité de contraction élastique d'une VNF.
