[Nfd-dev] Updating FIB

[Junxiao Shi]

Hi Hoque

Apps and routing daemons SHOULD update FIB indirectly by updating RIB.

To update RIB using ndn-cxx:

1. create ndn::nfd::Controller instance
2. populate a ndn::nfd::ControlParameters object with necessary fields
http://redmine.named-data.net/projects/nfd/wiki/RibMgmt
3. invoke controller.start<RibRegisterCommand> or
controller.start<RibUnregisterCommand>

Note: FibAddNextHopCommand SHOULD NOT be used by apps or routing daemons.
It's for internal use by NFD RIB daemon.

Yours, Junxiao
