Abstract
A ICN packet forwarding method, including: step 1) maintaining, by a network forwarding device, a network entity ID association state table, which is used for recording a state of the binding relationship between a network entity ID and a network address to which the network entity is associatively bound; after a network address binding relationship of the network entity changes due to location movement thereof, adding or updating, by the network forwarding device, a record of the network entity in the network entity ID association state table according to notification information of the network entity; and step 2) upon receipt of an ICN packet, by the network forwarding device, determining whether the ICN packet needs to be processed, according to information of the current network entity ID association state table; if yes, forwarding after processing the ICN packet; otherwise, directly forwarding the packet.
