[Nfd-dev] Multicast ad-hoc enable and broadcast storm

[Lan Wang (lanwang)]

I’m not sure exactly what specific broadcast storm scenario you are referring to, but the exponential suppression implemented with the multicast strategy will make sure that an interest of the same name received from the same face won’t be forwarded within an initial window of 10ms.  If more of the same interests are received within the window then the suppression window will increase exponentially.  This behavior should prevent the wireless nodes from forwarding this interest repeatedly to each other (although it is probably not the original intention of this mechanism as it was designed before the ad hoc mode was added).

Thanks for a reply Prof. Lan.
What i understand from nfd dev guide and nfd source codes, interest suppression mechanism main function is to protect the network from interest DDOS attack. Does the interest suppression mechanism is good enough to prevent wireless network from broadcast storm (with multicast ad-hoc setup)?
Is there any technical report or literature that discuss about interest suppression algorithm implemented in nfd?

AFAIK, current NFD can allow multicast ad hoc through both udp and raw ethernet instead suppressed in forwarding pipeline like before. My concern is, is there any mechanism, probably in interest loop pipeline to avoid broadcast storm happen during multicast in ad-hoc WiFi mode?
