This Recommendation specifies high-level and functional requirements, the architectural framework, and procedures that enable resource control and management capabilities for virtual network for carriers (VNCs).

The resource control and management function for VNCs (vRCMF):

− deals optimally with highly frequent network changes in the VNC environment;

− supports various customers' policies (e.g., access control, logging, quality of service (QoS), etc.) elastically and dynamically by considering both service and network resources simultaneously;

− supports control and management of virtualized resource: optimal control and management of multi-technology and multi-vendor carriers' virtualized resource.

This Recommendation addresses resource control and management issues in VNCs that represent a network aspect of carrier infrastructure (e.g., virtual networks in data centres and virtualized transport networks).
