<div class="">Dear All,<br class="">
<br class="">
I'm trying to send a new Interest packet from my
forwarding strategy (for signaling reasons). So after I
get an interest for data I forward it, and want to
generate and broadcast another one to my neighbors.<br class="">
<br class="">
I tried to modify the code from ndn-app.cpp as that's
the only "example" I found. However, the interest is not
passed to the Forwarder and I'm not sure how to do it.
The callback "afterSendInterest" is invoked.<br class="">
<br class="">
I'm wondering if I can use "NullTransport" for that (as
it's done for ndn-app) or I need a different one?<br class="">
<br class="">
Is it the right way to implement a signaling protocol in
my forwarding strategy?<br class="">
<br class="">
I would be grateful for any advices/comments.<br class="">
<br class="">
<br class="">
Regards,<br class="">
