Abstract
Named data networking (NDN) has promising advantages, however, it is hard to deploy because of the lack of special hardware to support it. Besides, the lack of specific routing schema also restrains the advantages of NDN. To solve the problems of deployment and routing, we come up with the source routing schema over protocol-oblivious forwarding (POF) for NDN. POF is able to directly carry NDN packets without over IP because it provides an adaptable and programmable forwarding plane by defining a generic flow instruction set. Source routing is a flexible and scalable routing schema and provides the flexible and efficient implementation for the future network. The centralized management of the source routing schema over POF can provide the following properties: (i) quickly responding to the change of network, and (ii) forwarding the Interest packet to the best cache node. Experiments show that the source routing schema over POF for NDN can reduce more than 50% of the networking traffic flow and increase the cache hit rate by up to 25% more than the baseline schemas. Thus, the source routing schema over POF could be an implementation plan for NDN.
