NFD.P4: NDN In-Networking Cache Implementation Scheme with P4

Abstract

This work proposes NFD.P4, a cache implementation scheme in Named Data Networking (NDN), to solve the problem of insufficient cache space of prgrammable switch and realize the practical application of NDN. We transplant the cache function of NDN.P4 to the NDN Forwarding Daemon (NFD) cache server, which replace the memory space of programmable switch.
