Abstract:
A method for operating a u-MANO inside a user domain that ensures deployment and service integrity of end-to-end network services in collaboration with a p-MANO includes receiving a request for a network service instance; and initiating a discovery operation to discover the p-MANO if the request's scope is determined to extend beyond the user domain. The discovery operation includes: determining an identity and/or an address of the p-MANO; sending a solicitation message to the p-MANO to discover its reachability and availability; sending a service request specifying network service requirements to the p-MANO in response to receiving a solicitation response from the p-MANO; and receiving a service acceptance from the p-MANO. The method further includes instantiating and deploying the network service instance that is at least partially within the user domain and partially outside the user domain.

Claim (Index 10):
A mobile processing system for deploying a manager and orchestrator (u-MANO) inside a user domain, the mobile processing system comprising at least one processor coupled to a non-transitory processor-readable storage medium having processor executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, deploy the u-MANO that comprises:\n an MANO system for controlling networking and computing resources and for instantiating and deploying a network service; an interface for communicating outside the user domain; a provider repository containing a list of provider details, including at least one of user contact information, subscription information, catalogues of resources, catalogs of service types, and capabilities associated with least one provider MANO (p-MANO); and a discovery engine configured to initiate a discovery operation to discover the at least one p-MANO in a case where a scope of the network service being deployed by the mobile processing system extends beyond the user domain, the discovery operation comprising: interacting with the provider repository to determine an identity and/or an address of the at least one p-MANO; sending, via the interface, a solicitation message to the at least one p-MANO to discover a reachability and an availability of the at least one p-MANO; sending, via the interface, a service request specifying network service requirements to the at least one p-MANO in response to receiving, via the interface, a solicitation response from the at least one p-MANO; and receiving, via the interface, a service acceptance from the at least one p-MANO.
