[Nfd-dev] Broadcast suppression in Self Learning Forwarding Strategy

[Mahyuddin Husairi]

During flooding (discovery and announcement), is there any specific
broadcast suppression technique applied?
If more than one consumer doing content discovery (interest packet
flooding) or more than one producer doing content name prefix announcement
(data packet flooding) using blind flooding, it will lead to flooding
overhead and probably lead to broadcast storm (https://en.wikipedia.org/
wiki/Broadcast_radiation) on the local network. The only control mechanism
that i found in the source code and nfd dev guide is interest suppression
which are design for different purposes.
