One embodiment provides a system that facilitates service discovery based on the synchronization of manifests between devices in a content centric network by using a synchronization protocol based on exact match names. During operation, a local device receives an advertisement corresponding to a remote manifest of a remote device. A manifest represents a collection of service records, and the advertisement includes a service record corresponding to the remote device. The local device updates its local manifest, in response to determining that the local manifest and the remote manifest correspond to a same namespace, by inserting the advertised service record into the local manifest. |
