If you select Flooding, then for all prefixes that have multiple faces in FIB, you going to have broadcast behavior. In our simulation we actually used this strategy, assuming that chat data is piggybacked along the SyncData.</div><div><br></div><div>It is relatively simple to enable different processing for different prefixes, but this would involve creating a new strategy, which combines Flooding and BestRoute behaviors, depending on FIB prefix. As a shortcut, you can simply hack the BestRoute strategy for that.</div><div><br></div><div>---</div><div>Alex</div><div><br><div><div>On Sep 7, 2013, at 6:10 PM, "Liu, Xuan (UMKC-Student)" <<a href="mailto:xuan.liu@mail.umkc.edu">xuan.liu@mail.umkc.edu</a>> wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><blockquote type="cite"><div fpstyle="1" ocsi="0" style="font-family: Menlo; font-size: medium; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: -webkit-auto; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; "><div style="direction: ltr; font-family: Tahoma; font-size: 10pt; ">Hi Alex,<div><br></div><div>I have a question on how to set the prefix for broadcasting in ndnSIM.
