NDN Link

Overview: Named Data Networking (NDN) Link is a component of the NDN architecture, focusing on the networking aspect. NDN is designed to be a future Internet architecture that seeks to replace the traditional host-centric architecture with a data-centric one.

Key Principles:

• Universality: Designed to be a universal network protocol for all applications and network environments.
• Data-Centricity and Data Immutability: NDN uses uniquely named, immutable “data packets” that are requested using “interest packets” to ensure data coordination in distributed systems.
• Security: Data packets are directly secured using signatures, allowing consumers to validate individual data packets independently of the data communication model.
• Hierarchical Naming: Data packets carry hierarchical names that provide structured context and enable demultiplexing.
• In-Network Name Discovery: Interests can use incomplete names to retrieve data packets, enabling flexible naming strategies.
• Hop-by-Hop Flow Balancing: One interest packet requests no more than one data packet to ensure efficient bandwidth control.

Characteristics:

• Stateful Forwarding: Routers keep the state of recently forwarded packets, enabling intelligent forwarding strategies and loop detection.
• End-to-End Principle: NDN retains the end-to-end principle for robust application development despite network failures.
• Routing and Forwarding Plane Separation: Allows the forwarding plane to function independently of the evolving routing system.

Applications and Testbed:

• Applications: Real-time conferencing, building automation systems, IoT sensors, and many more.
• Testbed: Deployed across multiple institutions, supporting various OS platforms and languages.

Design Objectives:

• Efficiency: NDN’s packet format and stateful forwarding design aim for optimal network usage.
• Flexibility: Designed for flexible naming and extension strategies, making it suitable for a wide range of applications.
• Security: Built-in security directly at the network layer ensures secure data transfers.
• Scalability: Aims to handle diverse communication needs efficiently.

Named Data Networking:

• Future Internet Architecture: NDN is a proposed Future Internet architecture that shifts the focus from host-centric to data-centric networking.
• Comparison to TCP/IP: NDN’s packet format and communication model differ from traditional TCP/IP
• Key Features: Unique naming for data packets, interest-based communication, and stateful forwarding.
