The present invention discloses a method and an apparatus for establishing a link between virtualized network functions. The method includes obtaining an internet protocol (IP) address of a connection point (CP) of a first virtualized network function (VNF) and identification information of the CP. The method also includes determining identification information of a second VNF corresponding to the identification information of the CP of the first VNF, sending the IP address of the CP of the first VNF and the identification information of the CP to the second VNF corresponding to the identification information of the second VNF. Additionally, the method includes starting a link connection establishment process between a CP of the second VNF and the CP of the first VNF.
