[Ndn-interest] NLSR dissemination of FIB updates

[Salvatore Signorello]

Thank you both,

I'm looking at the following documentation to get know the RIB
management
http://redmine.named-data.net/projects/nfd/wiki/Management
, if you want to point me more resources, I would be glad.

If I grep the NFD main directory looking for 'advertise', I find no
trace of this command, where should it be?

Best,
Salvo
