CCN name chaining
First Claim
1. A method for route transforming by a network device implementing a content centric networking (CCN) gateway or CCN router, where the CCN gateway or CCN router is part of a CCN network, the method to transform a CCN Name in a CCN request before forwarding in the CCN network, the method comprising:
- receiving a first CCN request including a first CCN Name, the first CCN Name including a route transformer identifier, the route transformer identifier to identify a first process for modifying the first CCN Name;
generating a modified first CCN Name by removing the route transformer identifier from the first CCN Name;
generating a second CCN Name from the modified first CCN Name using the first process;
generating a second CCN request including the second CCN Name; and
transmitting the second CCN request toward a destination in the CCN network.

Abstract
A method provides route transforming by a network device implementing a content centric networking (CCN) gateway or CCN router, where the CCN gateway or CCN router is part of a CCN network. The method transforms a CCN Name in a CCN request before forwarding in the CCN network. The method includes receiving a first CCN request including a first CCN Name, the first CCN Name including a route transformer identifier, generating a modified first CCN Name by removing the route transformer identifier from the first CCN Name, generating a second CCN Name from the modified first CCN Name; and generating a second CCN request including the second CCN Name.

5. A network device to implement a method for route transforming, the network device in a content centric networking (CCN) gateway or CCN router, where the CCN gateway or CCN router is part of a CCN network, the method to transform a CCN Name in a CCN request before forwarding in the CCN network, the network device comprising:
-
a non-transitory computer-readable medium having stored therein a route transforming module; and a processor coupled to the non-transitory computer-readable medium, the processor configured to execute the route transforming module, the route transforming module configured to receive a first CCN request including a first CCN Name, the first CCN Name including a route transformer identifier, the route transformer identifier to identify a first process for modifying the first CCN Name, to generate a modified first CCN Name by removing the route transformer identifier from the first CCN Name, to generate a second CCN Name from the modified first CCN Name using the first process, to generate a second CCN request including the second CCN Name; and
to transmit the second CCN request toward a destination in the CCN network. - View Dependent Claims (6, 7, 8)
