Abstract

In this paper, we investigate a sample line-speed content-centric router's design, its resources and its usage scenarios. We specifically take a closer look at one of the suggested functionalities for these routers, the content store. The design is targeted at pull-based environments, where content can be pulled from the network by any interested entity. We discuss the interaction between the pull-based protocols and the content-centric router. We also provide some basic feasibility metrics, discussing some applicability aspects for such routers.
