Abstract
A network slice management method, and a management unit and a system that are based on the method are provided. The method includes: determining, by a first management unit, subnet requirement information based on network slice requirement information, where a network slice includes at least one subnet; sending, by the first management unit, a first negotiation request to a second management unit, where the first negotiation request carries the subnet requirement information, and the first negotiation request is used to query for a support status of the second management unit for the subnet requirement information; and determining, by the second management unit, that the second management unit can support the subnet requirement information, or determining, by the second management unit, that the second management unit cannot support the subnet requirement information.
