The present invention relates to an apparatus for supporting Information-Centric Networking (ICN). A switch-based ICN node according to the present invention includes An ICN process for processing an ICN protocol to request information used to provide contents required by a user or to respond to the requested information, a line card for transmitting a received packet to an ICN processor, for recognizing a header format of the packet, and for determining an output port to output the packet, and a switch module for relaying the transmission of the packet between line cards. According to the configuration of the present invention, the ICN can be realized based on switch equipment. According to the present invention, core functions of the ICN of searching for and obtaining information in the switch equipment can be realized.
