Current IP-based networks are unable to fully exploit the capabilities of the increasing number of multihomed mobile terminals. We argue that Content-Centric Networking (CCN), a novel networking architecture based on named information objects, can fill the gap. In this paper, we elicit requirements for CCN packet forwarding on multihomed mobile terminals. We categorize CCN forwarding strategies according to their ability to fulfill these requirements and provide a realworld performance evaluation in the current CCNx prototype implementation. Moreover, we describe the initial design of an advanced multipath forwarding strategy.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
