NLSR: Named Data Link State Routing Protocol

Latest version Language CI Docker Docs

Tip

For more extensive documentation, visit the NLSR homepage.

Overview

NLSR is a routing protocol for Named Data Networking (NDN) that populates the Routing Information Base (RIB) of an NDN router, such as NFD. NLSR continues to evolve alongside the core NDN protocol.

The main design goal of NLSR is to provide a routing protocol to populate NDN's RIB. NLSR calculates the routing table using link-state or hyperbolic routing and produces multiple faces for each reachable name prefix in a single authoritative domain. NLSR will continue to evolve over time to include neighbor discovery and to become a full fledged inter-domain routing protocol for NDN.

NLSR was mainly developed by members of the NSF-sponsored NDN project. See AUTHORS.md for details.
