Abstract
One embodiment of the present invention provides a system that facilitates the transfer of the state of a stack in a content centric network. During operation, the system receives, by a communication component from a coordinating entity, a command message to store a current state of the component, wherein the communication component is used in processing messages based on a name, and wherein a name is a hierarchically structured variable length identifier (HSVLI) which comprises contiguous name components ordered from a most general level to a most specific level. The system determines a current state for the communication component. Subsequently, the system stores the current state for the communication component in a data structure.
