Abstract:
Embodiments of the present invention disclose a flow control method and apparatus under an NFV architecture. The method includes: virtualizing a physical resource into multiple virtual resources that are used to independently run services, and dividing the physical resource into multiple sub physical resources, where there is a correspondence between the virtual resource and the sub physical resource; obtaining a preset mapping relationship between a service priority and the virtual resource, and setting a priority for the virtual resource according to the preset mapping relationship between the service priority and the virtual resource; and when a service traffic burst causes congestion of the physical resource, controlling, according to the priority of the virtual resource and the correspondence between the virtual resource and the sub physical resource, the sub physical resource that is used by the virtual resource.

Claim (Index 7):
A flow control apparatus under a network functions virtualization (NFV) architecture, comprising:\n a memory; and a processor, wherein the processor is configured to execute a software program stored in the memory to perform: virtualizing a physical resource into multiple virtual resources that are used to independently run services, and divide the physical resource into multiple sub physical resources, wherein there is a correspondence between the virtual resource and the sub physical resource; obtaining a preset mapping relationship between a service priority and the virtual resource; and setting a priority for the virtual resource according to the preset mapping relationship that is between the service priority and the virtual resource and that is obtained by the obtaining unit; wherein when a service traffic burst causes congestion of the physical resource, controlling, according to the priority that is of the virtual resource and that is set by the setting unit and the correspondence between the virtual resource and the sub physical resource, the sub physical resource that is used by the virtual resource.
