NFD forwarding pipelines

Overview
• Forwarding consists of pipelines and strategies• Pipeline: a series of steps that operate on a packet
or a PIT entry• Strategy: a decision maker on whether, when, and
where to forward an Interest
3
Pipelines
• incoming Interest• ContentStore miss• ContentStore hit• Interest loop• outgoing Interest• Interest reject• Interest unsatisfied• Interest finalize• incoming Data• Data unsolicited• outgoing Data

detect duplicate Nonce
• If any InRecord or OutRecord contains the same Nonce as the incoming Interest, or the Name and Nonce of the incoming Interest appear in Dead Nonce List, a duplicate Nonce is detected.• If the duplicate Nonce is found in InRecord only, this is a
multi-path arrival, and not a loop.• If the duplicate Nonce is found in OutRecord or Dead
Nonce Table, this is either a multi-path arrival or a loop, and these two reasons are indistinguishable.
• Nonce is later recorded on an InRecord.
9
Interest loop pipeline
• Process an Interest that has been considered looped• This pipeline is currently empty, which means Interest
packet is dropped. NACK could be added here
10
ContentStore miss pipeline
• This pipeline is entered when an incoming Interest• is pending (so ContentStore lookup is unnecessary), or• is miss from ContentStore
• This pipeline will start forwarding the Interest

set PIT unsatisfy timer
• Given PIT entry, set an unsatisfy timer which fires when InterestLifetime expires for all unexpired InRecords• When the unsatisfy timer fires, Interest unsatisfied
pipeline is entered
13
determine whether in producer region• Input:
• routerName: the router's Name, from configuration• interest
• Algorithm:1. if the Interest does not have a Link object, return true and
abort these steps2. let delegationName be the first delegation Name in the Link
object3. if delegationName is a prefix of routerName, return true and
abort these steps4. let delegationName be the next delegation Name in the Link
object, goto step 35. return false
14
FIB lookup with SelectedDelegation• Given an Interest with Link object and
SelectedDelegation, perform a FIB lookup using the delegation Name indexed by SelectedDelegation.
15
choose and set SelectedDelegation• Input:
• interest, with Link but without SelectedDelegation
• Algorithm:1. sort delegations by increasing Preference2. let delegationName be the first delegation Name3. lookup FIB with delegationName4. if a match is found, insert SelectedDelegation field onto
the Interest with the index of this delegation, return the match, and abort these steps
5. let delegationName be the next delegation Name, goto step 3
6. lookup FIB with Interest Name

pick outgoing Interest packet• Given PIT entry and nexthop, decide the guiders on
the outgoing Interest• Nonce and InterestLifetime come from an InRecord with
longest remaining lifetime, however InRecord with same Face as the nexthop cannot be used• InterestLifetime is carried from the original packet
without deducting the time elapsed• Scope is the most relaxed among all unexpired InRecords• The last incoming Interest is picked
• This is a simple choice until we understand the effect of guiders better

Dead Nonce List insert
• Dead Nonce List insertion is needed if:• Interest is unsatisified, OR• Interest has MustBeFresh=yes and Data FreshnessPeriod
is shorter than 6 seconds
• Nonces in OutRecords are inserted to Dead Nonce List.

set PIT straggler timer
• Given PIT entry, set a straggler timer which fires after a short time• Tstraggler = 100ms
• When the straggler timer fires, PIT entry is deleted
• The purpose of retaining PIT entry for a short time is to facilitate loop detection and to collect measurement for non-fastest upstreams
