Abstract
A network component comprising a receiver configured to receive an advertisement for a content name for content associated with a list of secured router identifiers (SRIDs) that indicates a plurality of content routers authorized for routing and caching the content, a processor configured to determine whether to flood the advertisement to a plurality of neighboring nodes if a locally assigned SRID is included in the list of SRIDs received in the advertisement or to drop the advertisement otherwise, a transmitter configured to flood the advertisement on a plurality of ports coupled to the neighboring nodes, and a storage configured to cache received content if the received content is associated with the locally assigned SRID.
