The invention relates to a technique for communication implemented by a routing device in a communication network implementing a name-based routing. To process a request relating to a segment of data of a given stream to be routed, the routing device obtains (E8) at least one identifier of an interface by way of which at least one other segment of data of said given stream has been routed during the processing of an earlier request relating to said other segment of data and routes (E9) this request by way of this at least one interface obtained. In a particular embodiment, a stream being attached to a domain, the request is also routed (E10) by way of another interface through which at least one other segment of data of a stream attached to said domain has been received.
A communication method implemented by a device (20-28) for forwarding in a communication network (1) implementing name-based forwarding, said method comprising the following steps implemented to process a request relating to a data segment of a given stream, said request having to be forwarded by way of an interface of the forwarding device:
A device (20-28) for forwarding in a communication network implementing name-based forwarding, comprising the following means, activated to process a request relating to a data segment of a given stream, said request having to be forwarded on a link of the forwarding device:
