[ndnSIM] New routing protocol

[Alex Afanasyev]

Hi Chavoosh,

OSPFn may be not a good example here, since it is a (temporary) hack of IP-based OSPF protocol to carry information about NDN connectivity and prefixes.

But in general, the routing daemon could be implemented as an ordinary application that sends and receives NDN interest/data packets.  So the steps would: design what exactly the protocol you want to run, and then implement an applications that will be installed on each ndnSIM node and will run the designed protocol.

Lets simplify my question, assume you want implement OSPF (or any other routing protocol) in ndnSIM, now describe the procedure and tell the steps you need to do abstractly if you can (As I want the procedure, please do not mention to "OSPFN" paper).

Now I am wondering is there any way that I can implement my idea by ndnSIM? i.e. is ndnSIM flexible enough to define new routing protocol for it? if yes, please guide me to the best way and if no, I will be so glad if you can help me about this issue.
