A network node, comprising a data store comprising a content object, wherein the content object comprises multiple content chunks, a receiver configured to receive a request from a requesting network node for at least one chunk of the content object, a transmitter configured to transmit data, and a processor coupled to the receiver, the transmitter, and the data store, wherein the processor is configured to encode the content using the multiple content chunks and to instruct the transmitter to transmit the encoded content and an encoding indicator to the requesting network node, wherein the encoding indicator provides the requesting network node with an encoding mechanism that the requesting network node uses to decode the encoded content in the payload into the multiple content chunks after the requesting network node receives a number of packets comprising the encoded content equal to the number of content chunks that comprise the content object.
