The Internet Protocol (IP) is the lifeblood of the modern Internet. Its simplicity and universality have fueled the unprecedented and lasting global success of the current Internet. Nonetheless, some limitations of IP have been emerging in recent years. Its original design envisaged supporting perhaps tens of thousands of static hosts operating in a friendly academic-like setting, mainly in order to facilitate email communication and remote access to scarce computing resources. At present IP interconnects billions of static and mobile devices (ranging from supercomputers to IoT gadgets) with a large and dynamic set of popular applications. Starting in mid-1990s, the advent of mobility, wirelessness and the web substantially shifted Internet usage and communication paradigms. This accentuated longterm concerns about the current Internet architecture and prompted interest in alternative designs.The U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF) has been one of the key supporters of efforts to design a set of candidate next-generation Internet architectures. As a prominent design requirement, NSF emphasized "security and privacy by design" in order to avoid the long and unhappy history of incremental patching and retrofitting that characterizes the current Internet architecture. To this end, as a result of a competitive process, four prominent research projects were funded by the NSF in 2010: Nebula, Named-Data Networking (NDN), MobilityFirst (MF), and Expressive Internet Architecture (XIA). This paper provides a comprehensive and neutral analysis of salient security and privacy features (and issues) in these NSF-funded Future Internet Architectures. It also compares the four candidate designs with the current IP-based architecture and discusses similarities, differences, and possible improvements.

“…ICING also enables NEBULA to enforce a much richer set of policies-e.g., a domain can refuse to carry traffic that has not yet traversed a firewall that is located in another domain. NEBULA extensible control plane (NVENT): NVENT embodies new control-plane technologies that focus on policy specification, policy-based path setup [6] and service naming [20].…”

NEBULA is a proposal for a Future Internet Architecture. It is based on the assumptions that: (1) cloud computing will comprise an increasing fraction of the application workload offered to an Internet, and (2) that access to cloud computing resources will demand new architectural features from a network. Features that we have identified include dependability, security, flexibility and extensibility, the entirety of which constitute resilience. NEBULA provides resilient networking services using ultrareliable routers, an extensible control plane and use of multiple paths upon which arbitrary policies may be enforced. We report on a prototype system, Zodiac, that incorporates these latter two features.
