| Deletions |
| ^^^^^^^^^ |
| |
| - Deprecated code, including ``faces/enable-local-control`` and ``faces/disable-local-control`` |
| management commands (:issue:`3988`) |
| |
| - ``NetworkInterfaceInfo`` class, replaced by ``ndn::net::NetworkInterface`` from ndn-cxx |
| (:issue:`4021`) |
| |
| - Legacy nfdc and nfd-status invocations |
| |
| The following legacy nfdc sub-commands are deleted, use the corresponding ``nfdc face ...``, |
| ``nfdc route ...``, ``nfdc strategy ...`` commands: |
| |
| * ``register`` |
| * ``unregister`` |
| * ``create`` |
| * ``destroy`` |
| * ``set-strategy`` |
| * ``unset-strategy`` |
| * ``add-nexthop`` |
| * ``remove nexthop`` |
| |
| - ``nfd-status`` no longer accepts command line arguments (:issue:`4198`). Individual datasets |
| can be requested using ``nfdc channel list``, ``nfdc face list``, ``nfdc fib list``, ``nfdc |
| route list``, and ``nfdc strategy list`` commands. |
| |
| - ``nfdId`` from ``nfdc status`` output (:issue:`4089`) |
| |
| - Prohibited endpoint set, making it possible to create faces that connect NFD to itself |
| (:issue:`4189`) |
