Abstract

Embodiments of the present invention relate to a network function management method, a management device, and a system. The method includes: obtaining, by a second management device, sharing information of a network function, where the sharing information of the network function is used to indicate whether the network function can be shared by at least two network slices; sending, by the second management device, the sharing information of the network function to a first management device; and orchestrating, by the first management device, the network function based on the sharing information of the network function. It can be learned from the above that the embodiments of the present invention provide a specific solution to choosing to provide a network slice with a shared network function or an exclusive network function, thereby facilitating network function maintenance and management.
