Abstract

In one implementation, a method includes receiving, from a link owner, a first interest message for an authorized link object, wherein the authorized link object links to content of a content owner. The method also includes transmitting, to the link owner, a second interest message for a proposed link object based on the first interest message. The method further includes receiving, from the link owner, the proposed link object, wherein the proposed link object comprises a first signature generated by the link owner. The method further includes determining whether the link owner is allowed to link to the content and transmitting, to the link owner, the authorized link object when the link owner is allowed to link to the content, wherein the authorized link object comprises a first name for the content, the first signature, and a second signature generated by a content owner.
