Abstract
In Named Data Networking (NDN) architecture, packets carry data names rather than source or destination addresses. To realize this paradigm, each NDN router maintains three data structures CS, PIT, FIB in the forwarding plane. Designing a quick enough forwarding plane with high capacity is a major challenge within the overall NDN research area. In this paper, we present a novel implementation of FIB called MaFIB. The evaluations indicate that the excellent data structure and the efficient lookup algorithm of MaFIB can effectively reduce the memory cost and can accelerate the lookup process. Its outstanding performance in probability of false positive also makes MaFIB meet current network requirements.
Highlights
In terms of wireless network topology, two basic types of wireless networks are available: infrastructure-based cellular network and infrastructureless ad hoc network [1, 2]
Our evaluations indicate that MaFIB can minimize the on-chip memory consumption to 4.194 MB and can accelerate the lookup process in the memory
5 Evaluation and discussion We evaluate the performance of MaFIB and we compare it with the forwarding information base (FIB) based on Name Component Encoding (NCE) (NCE-FIB) and the traditional FIB of Named Data Networking (NDN) router (t-FIB) in terms of the on-chip memory consumption, probability of false positive, and building time
Summary
In terms of wireless network topology, two basic types of wireless networks are available: infrastructure-based cellular network and infrastructureless ad hoc network [1, 2]. Hybrid wireless networks are combining these two above technologies. A cellular network can be extended into regions where no base station is reachable. The base stations can provide access to other networks. A hybrid wireless network takes advantage of both the long distance communication property of the infrastructure-based cellular network and the peer-to-peer communication property of the infrastructreless ad hoc network. Hybrid wireless network is considered as a promising candidate for the future network [3, 4]. We study hybrid wireless networks with Named Data Networking (NDN) in the infrastructure mode
