Introduction In the 5G era, the mobile network functions and mobile services could be provided on demand basis using network function virtualizaton (NFV) and network slicing. This document describes the architecture of delivering the mobility and multicast services over 5G core network using NFV and network slicing. The mobility and multicast are delivered to customers depending on their type of traffic that they are going to request or mobile operator's specific use cases. This architecture makes use of advanced features of current distributed mobility management deployment and management and orchestration framework (MANO) of network function virtualizaton This architecture provides a real view of deployment of mobility and mulicast functions in 5G core network. 2.

Multicast and mobility using slicing Expires April 30,2017 [Page 4] Internet-Draft Oct 30,2016 Fig 1. shows the architecture for delivering multicast and mobility services over core network using network slicing. In this document, we assume that mobility and multicast services could be provided using DMM functions, such as CMA, DMA. Those DMM functions are covered in [IETF-DMM-deployment-model] and [IETF-DMM-multicast-deployment-model]. In 5G network, the concepts of MANO and slicing are introduced to increase the network resource efficiency, elasticity, and flexibility. The mobile network services should be provided on the demand basis and optimized for a specific use case using network slicing. We observe that there are several use cases that have different requirements for mobility and multicast services as below. + Only multicast: public safety, video broadcast over sport area + Only mobility: user with non-video traffic (web surfing) + Multicast and mobility: user with video traffic We introduce the architecture to provide network slice on demand and suitable for each use case. Here, we have three network slices: the only mulicast slice providing video streaming services for public safety or sport event use cases; the only mobility slice providing services for non-video traffic users; and the mobility and mulicast slice providing services for video traffic users. Here, user traffic could be classified as video and non-video traffic beforing entering to the specific slice. Main components of our architecture includes: specific VNF managers (mobility VNF manager, multicast broadcast VNF managers), specific network controlers (mobility controler, multicast broadcast controlers) and a combined orchestration service. The specific VNF managers are used to instantiate, configure, and manage DMM functions. These DMM functions are described by VNF descriptors. The specific network controlers are used to configure virtual networks corresponding to functions supported by each slice. A flowvisor is used to create different network slices over common network infrastructure. A combined orchestration service based on operator's requirements to compose different DMM functions to provide appropriate network services.
