In the future, this diversity will increase and it will be more difficult to accommodate all services in a single network. A possible approach to cope with this diversity within future networks is the introduction of support for running isolated networks for different services on top of a single shared physical substrate. This would also enable easy network management and ensure an economically sound operation. End-customers will readily adopt this approach as it enables new and innovative services without being expensive. In order to arrive at a concept that enables this kind of network, it needs to be designed around and constantly checked against realistic use cases. In this contribution, we present three use cases for future networks. We describe functional blocks of a virtual network architecture, which are necessary to support these use cases within the network. Furthermore, we discuss the interfaces needed between the functional blocks and consider standardization issues that arise in order to achieve a global consistent control and management structure of virtual networks.}, subject = {Virtualisierung}, language = {en} }
