Abstract
Embodiments of this application provide a network slice management method and an apparatus. The method includes: receiving, by an NSMF, a network slice instantiation request, where the network slice instantiation request includes network slice requirement information; obtaining, by the NSMF, a network slice template based on a network slice template identifier or a network slice type; decomposing, by the NSMF, the network slice requirement information into network slice subnet requirement information and transport network requirement information based on the network slice template; sending, by the NSMF, a network slice subnet instantiation request to an network slice subnet management function (NSSMF), where the network slice subnet instantiation request includes the network slice subnet requirement information; receiving, by the NSMF, a network slice subnet instantiation response sent by the NSSMF; and sending, by the NSMF, a transport network instantiation request to a TN-manager.
