1. A computer-executable method, comprising:

  • sending, by a computing device, a first interest associated with an explicit strategy feedback request, which is generated by the computing device, via a first egress interface, wherein the first egress interface is in a plurality of egress interfaces mapped to a same name in a forwarding table, wherein an interest indicates the content object in a Content-Centric Network (CCN), wherein the interest is routed based on the name in the CCN, and wherein the explicit strategy feedback request indicates a request for a feedback regarding a forwarding strategy for the name;

    storing one or more parameters received in response to the explicit strategy feedback request in an entry in the forwarding table, wherein the one or more parameters are associated with a first device, wherein the entry comprises the name and the first egress interface, and wherein the one or more parameters relate to server and/or network cost and/or performance;

    determining, for a second interest for a content object associated with the name, the first egress interface from the plurality of egress interfaces based on the entry comprising the name, the first egress interface, and the stored parameters; and

    forwarding the second interest via the first egress interface to a producer node based on the explicit forwarding strategy received in response to the first interest request.
