Abstract(in English) NFV-based network implements a variety of network functions with software on general-purpose servers and this allows the network operator to select any capabilities and locations of network functions without any physical constraints. Therefore, the algorithm to determine the place where network functions are located and how much capacities of network functions flexibly are required is essential for economical network design. The authors proposed an algorithm of virtual routing function allocation in the NFV network for minimizing the total power consumption, and developed effective allocation guidelines for virtual routing This paper evaluates the effect of the maximum tolerable network delay on the guidelines for the allocation of virtual routing functions. The objective function in this paper is to minimize the total network cost. Our evaluation results have revealed the following: (1) The shorter the maximum tolerable network delay, the greater the number of areas where the routing function must be allocated, resulting in an increase in the total network cost. (2) The greater the routing function cost relative to the circuit bandwidth cost, the greater the increase in the total network cost caused by the maximum tolerable network delay.
