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 6):
The computer-based method according to  claim 1 ,\n wherein the discovery operation further comprises: based upon determining one or more of the reachability as unreachable, the availability as unavailable, or the network service requirements are unfulfillable by the at least one p-MANO, sending a general solicitation message to discover a new p-MANO that is reachable and available; and based upon discovering the new p-MANO, negotiating access to the new p-MANO, and wherein the instantiating and deploying the network service instance comprises collaborating with the new p-MANO.
