USING INTEREST MESSAGES WITH PAYLOAD TO CONFIGURE NETWORK NODES IN NAMED DATA NETWORKS

摘要

A network device can process a payload in an Interest packet. During operation, the network device can receive an Interest packet that includes a name or a name prefix associated with one or more target entities for the Interest. If the network device determines that the Interest packet includes a payload, the network node can analyze the Interest's name and/or payload to determine an operation to perform for processing the payload. The network device then proceeds to process the payload by performing the determined operation.
