Abstract
Disclosed is a system and method for managing regulatory compliance. The method includes receiving, at a network controller, a compliance regulatory requirement associated with a virtual network function via a network service header field, the virtual network function being part of a service function chain, and receiving, at the network controller, a compliance regulatory status associated with the virtual network function. Based on the compliance regulatory requirement and compliance regulatory status, the method includes determining, at the network controller, that a remedy is required for the virtual network function to comply with the compliance regulatory requirement to yield a determination. When the determination indicates that the remedy is required, the method includes implementing, via the network controller, a compliance regulator action associated with the virtual network function as the remedy.
