This application discloses a network resource scheduling method and an apparatus. A specific scheduling process includes: receiving, by a first network node, a message, where the message includes a network resource that needs to be scheduled between a plurality of network nodes on a multi-hop path; and after resource scheduling is performed between the first network node and a second network node, sending the message to the second network node, to trigger network resource scheduling between the second network node and a third network node. Therefore, end-to-end resource scheduling is implemented by using one message, and end-to-end resource reservation on the multi-hop path can be implemented.
