[Ndn-interest] What is difference between FIB and RIB?

[ndn ndn]

The explain is clear,I think I understand it.I will read NFD developer
guide for find more information.
BTW:
if I run command nfdc create or nfd-autoreg,is it means that application
will add a route entry in RIB not FIB.And after that,  FIB was updated by
RIB trigger.
thanks for your reply.
