Abstract
A virtual resource management node to seamlessly migrate a virtual machine with less influence on services in an NFV environment. A VIM is a VIM for managing each virtualized resource that is included in an NFV environment including virtualized resources including a physical machine in which a virtual machine having a VNF being a virtualized communication function is implemented, and the VIM includes a switching unit for switching a network flow from a virtual machine of a migration source to a virtual machine of a migration destination, or switching a system between an Active (ACT) system virtual machine of a migration source and a Standby (SBY) system virtual machine of a migration destination.
