Abstract:
The Information Centric Networking (ICN) paradigm shifts the focus of
networking from providing connections between hosts to efficiently
providing content to the users. The work on ICN has traditionally
been performed looking at "clean-slate" solutions which aims to
replace IP with a new paradigm. On the other hand, in this memo we
propose an "integration" approach to Information Centric Networking,
i.e. we extend the IP protocol suite by defining a new IP Protocol
type (CONET). Then we propose two ways of carring ICN related
information in IP packets, one uses a new IP Option (both for IPv4
and IPv6), the other one only relies on the IP payload. The ICN
related information is used by network nodes and end nodes to support
networking based on content rather than (or better in addition to)
end-point addresses.
