Abstract
Upon receiving a virtual network function (VNF) creation request including location information, a VNF manager (VNFM) of a network virtualization system transmits the VNF creation request to a VNF orchestrator (NFVO). Using the location information included in the VNF creation request, the NFVO extracts a virtual infrastructure manager (VIM) that satisfies the requirement of the location information with reference to the VIM information, and selects, from among the extracted VIMs, the VIM that satisfies a creation requirement other than the location information with reference to physical device/virtual resource information.
