Abstract

In one implementation, a method includes receiving, via a first information centric networking (ICN) interface, a first interest message comprising a first name of a first data object. The method also includes determining whether the first data object is stored within a cache of a router based on the first interest message. The method further includes updating, when the first data object is stored within the cache of the router, the first interest message with a first indicator indicating that the first data object is stored within the cache of the router. The method further includes transmitting, via a second ICN interface, the updated first interest message when the first data object is stored within the cache of the router.
