A communication method comprises that if a policy control device does not support setup of an Internet Protocol (IP) multimedia subsystem (IMS) default bearer during setup of an IMS default bearer for a terminal, the control plane gateway sends second indication information to a user plane gateway, where the second indication information indicates the control plane gateway bypasses the policy control device. When the user plane gateway receives an IMS session request from the terminal and determines that the control plane gateway bypasses the policy control device, the user plane gateway sends first indication information to the control plane gateway, and the first indication information indicates the control plane gateway to send, to the policy control device, a first request to request to establish a mapping relationship between the terminal and the control plane gateway such that an IMS session can be set up between terminals.

Communication method and apparatus

A virtual network function (VNF) deployment method and apparatus is provided. The method comprises: obtaining a virtual network function descriptor (VNFD), where the VNFD includes input parameter information, input adaptation information, and VNF descriptor information; the input parameter information includes N pieces of management unit information, each piece of management unit information is used to describe an attribute of a management unit; the input adaptation information is used to indicate a mapping relationship between the management unit and a logical management unit; mapping management units corresponding to the N management unit identifiers to the N logical management units based on the input adaptation information; and creating the VNF on the N logical management units based on the VNF descriptor information. The embodiments of this application are applicable to VNF deployment process.

Virtual network function VNF deployment method and apparatus

This application discloses an arbitration method and a related apparatus. The method includes: detecting, by the first ABS apparatus, first status information of a service module in the first DC; when determining that a communication link between the first DC and the second DC is faulty, obtaining, by the first ABS apparatus, second status information, wherein the second status information is status information that is of a service module in the second DC and that is detected by the second ABS apparatus; and arbitrating, by the first ABS apparatus, a subsequent service providing capability of the first DC based on the first status information and the second status information.
