The present application relates to the field of network technologies, and in particular, to a method for processing network slice template and a management device. The method comprises the following steps of: a first management entity receives a first network slice template information sent by a second management entity; the first network slice template information is a subset of all information included in the first network slice template determined by the second management entity according to a preset management strategy; the first management entity is used for managing communication services, and the second management entity is used for managing network slice instances. The method of the embodiments can make the management more flexible and achieve the goal of moderately opening the network information when using the NST. In addition, the method can greatly save the communication resources between the first management entity and the second management entity due to the fact that thepartial information of the NST is capable of transmitted.
