  • Abstract

    Information-Centric Networks expose content information to the network layer. CCN, NDN and others want to replace IP as the narrow waist of the Internet. In iDNS, it is argued that most of the benefits of ICN can be achieved in IP through modification of DNS, and by adding a new content record (CR) type to the records returned by a DNS server. This CR type allows the DNS server to respond to request for Named-Data Objects (NDO) or name prefixes. The CR type is a list of IP addresses associated with the NDO.
    We argue that this does not go far enough, and that the DNS could return more information about the object, namely that the DNS should return a manifest that describes the object properties. The manifest is an object (say, in xml) describing the properties of the content object that are relevant at the network layer. In particular, the manifest includes the location of the object, some security properties and some information regarding the transport of the object, including for instance its size.
