CCNx Comm. Meeting, Sophia-Antipolis, Sept. 12-13, 2012

Orange Labs

1. Motivation

• Experiment with caching schemes using real traffic(HTTP dominates)

• Hands-on on application level => universal HTTP/CCN gateway (able to operate in different settings: inbound/outbound proxy, HTTP tunelling)

2. Naming and mapping of messages

3. Architecture – functional settings

CCN client / IP server

4. Actual setup

• CCN client / IP server

• CCN client / CCN server

Watch the demo for more details

Requirements• 100% HTTP compatibility• easy to implement• future-proof to the changes of CCNx protocol

Two basic rules adopted:• Request header – mapped onto content name using

command markers• Entity Body always conveyed in Data packets

(sequences of Interest/Data may be required)

Examples:

GET

POST

ccnx://http/<request_method_name>/<URL>/<abs_path>....../%C1.http.<header_field_name>~Eb64(field_value)/%C1.http...

Need to upload a file using the POSTmethod

Interest (can I send ?)

name:

name:content: OK

Data [OK] (wait for the Interest that prompts you to specify your request)

Interest (specify your POST request)

Data (well, I’m posting this)

name:

content:

Interest (please, send a server OK response to me)

+ body

Data (here goes the OK to the POST)

name:content: OK
