摘要: Abstract Network Function Virtualization (NFV) is a promising technology that implements Virtual (VNF) with software on general servers. Traffic needs to go through set of ordered VNFs, which called Service Chain (SFC). Rational deployment VNFs can reduce costs and increase profits for network operators. However, during the how guarantee reliability SFC requirements while optimizing resource cost still an open problem. To this end, we study problem reliability-aware VNF placement in carrier networks. In paper, firstly redefine SFC, product all nodes physical links SFC. On basis, propose two protection mechanisms: All-Nodes Protection Mechanism (ANPM) Single-Node (SNPM). Following this, each mechanism, formulate as Integer Linear Programming (ILP) model. Due complexity, heuristic algorithm based Dynamic Lagrangian Relaxation mechanism. With extensive simulations using real world topologies, our results show compared benchmark ANPM, SNPM save up 33.34% 26.76% average respectively guaranteeing requirement requests, indicating performs better than ANPM has application potential
