Abstract
A method provides route transforming by a network device implementing a content centric networking (CCN) gateway or CCN router, where the CCN gateway or CCN router is part of a CCN network. The method transforms a CCN Name in a CCN request before forwarding in the CCN network. The method includes receiving a first CCN request including a first CCN Name, the first CCN Name including a route transformer identifier, generating a modified first CCN Name by removing the route transformer identifier from the first CCN Name, generating a second CCN Name from the modified first CCN Name; and generating a second CCN request including the second CCN Name.
Claims28
A method for route transforming by a network device implementing a content centric networking (CCN) gateway or CCN router, where the CCN gateway or CCN router is part of a CCN network, the method to transform a CCN Name in a CCN request before forwarding in the CCN network, the method comprising:
- receiving a first CCN request including a first CCN Name, the first CCN Name including a route transformer identifier;
- generating a modified first CCN Name by removing the route transformer identifier from the first CCN Name;
- generating a second CCN Name from the modified first CCN Name;
- and
- generating a second CCN request including the second CCN Name.
A network device to implement a method for route transforming, the network device in a content centric networking (CCN) gateway or CCN router, where the CCN gateway or CCN router is part of a CCN network, the method to transform a CCN Name in a CCN request before forwarding in the CCN network, the network device comprising:
- a non-transitory computer-readable medium having stored therein a route transforming module;
- and
- a processor coupled to the non-transitory computer-readable medium, the processor configured to execute the route transforming module, the route transforming module configured to receive a first CCN request including a first CCN Name, the first CCN Name including a route transformer identifier, to generate a modified first CCN Name by removing the route transformer identifier from the first CCN Name, to generate a second CCN Name from the modified first CCN Name, and to generate a second CCN request including the second CCN Name.
A computing device to execute a plurality of virtual machines for implementing network function virtualization (NFV), wherein a virtual machine from the plurality of virtual machines is configured to implement a method for route transforming, the computing device in a content centric networking (CCN) gateway or CCN router, where the CCN gateway or CCN router is part of a CCN network, the method to transform a CCN Name in a CCN request before forwarding in the CCN network, the computing device comprising:
- a non-transitory computer-readable medium having stored therein a route transforming module;
- and
- a processor coupled to the non-transitory computer-readable medium, the processor configured to execute the virtual machine, the virtual machine configured to execute the route transforming module, the route transforming module configured to receive a first CCN request including a first CCN Name, the first CCN Name including a route transformer identifier, to generate a modified first CCN Name by removing the route transformer identifier from the first CCN Name, to generate a second CCN Name from the modified first CCN Name, and to generate a second CCN request including the second CCN Name.
A control plane device configured to implement a control plane of a software defined networking (SDN) network including a plurality of network devices forming a content centric network, the control plane device implementing a method for route transforming, the control plane device in a content centric networking (CCN) gateway or CCN router, where the CCN gateway or CCN router is part of a CCN network, the method to transform a CCN Name in a CCN request before forwarding in the CCN network, the control plane device comprising:
- a non-transitory computer-readable medium having stored therein a route transforming module;
- and
- a processor coupled to the non-transitory computer-readable medium, the processor configured to execute the route transforming module, the route transforming module configured to receive a first CCN request including a first CCN Name, the first CCN Name including a route transformer identifier, to generate a modified first CCN Name by removing the route transformer identifier from the first CCN Name, to generate a second CCN Name from the modified first CCN Name, and to generate a second CCN request including the second CCN Name.
