ABSTRACT:
Techniques for partitioning a network element into multiple virtual network elements are provided. Resources of the network element are allocated to the virtual network elements and a virtual network element manager manages the execution of the virtual network elements. The virtual network elements allow the network element to conceptually function and be customized as distinct network elements.
