There are several ways to support NDN producer mobility, as summarized in the paper "A Survey of Mobility Support in Named Data Networking"
https://named-data.net/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/survey_mobility_support_ndn.pdf <https://named-data.net/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/survey_mobility_support_ndn.pdf>

At this time, I believe that people are experimenting with a few of the approaches, for example the "Interest with hint" idea (see Table II in the paper) is used by NDNfit.

Since you are working on NDN mobility, wonder exactly what you plan to do?
