An Effective CCN Forwarding at Gateway Router

Content-Centric-Networking (CCN) architecture brings contents near to the users through caching. If the requested contents location is unknown, the Content Router (CR) floods the user’s requests to all of its neighbor routers for finding the content. This results in forwarding many unnecessary requests outside of the Autonomous System (AS), and also consumes uplink bandwidth. In this paper, we proposed a forwarding mechanism which is implementable at the gateway router for making a decision on which interest packets to forward to the outside of the AS. The simulation results show that our proposed mechanism performs better that existing proposals.
