The concept of network slicing opens the possibilities to address the complex requirements of multitenancy in 5G. To this end, SDN/NFV can act as technology enabler. This paper presents a centralised and dynamic approach for creating and provisioning network slices for virtual network operators' consumption to offer services to their end customers, focusing on an SDN wireless backhaul use case. We demonstrate our approach for dynamic end-to-end slice and service provisioning in a testbed.
