This document proposes a method to estimate dependability attributes (risks) in virtual network environments. It uses a hierarchical modeling approach combining reliability block diagrams and stochastic Petri nets to model large virtual networks. The method was evaluated using a case study that generated virtual network requests and assessed dependability metrics like availability and reliability. The results demonstrate how dependability measures can vary between virtual networks and be impacted by common mode failures. Future work involves improving dependability through fault tolerance and incorporating metrics into resource allocation algorithms.
