NFD version 0.7.0
-----------------
Release date: January 13, 2020
New features
^^^^^^^^^^^^
- Support only `NDN packet format version 0.3 <https://docs.named-data.net/NDN-packet-spec/0.3/>`__
(:issue:`4805`, :issue:`4581`, :issue:`4913`)
- Initial support for ``PitToken`` (:issue:`4532`)
- Random Forwarding Strategy that chooses a random outgoing face, excluding the incoming
face of an Interest packet (:issue:`4992`)
Improvements and bug fixes
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
- Avoid ``cs::Entry`` construction during Content Store lookup (:issue:`4914`)
- Make use of ndn-cxx's ``RttEstimator`` in ``LpReliability``, ``AsfStrategy``, and
``AccessStrategy`` (:issue:`4887`)
- Increase pcap buffer size in Ethernet faces (:issue:`2441`)
- Make congestion marking less aggressive (:issue:`5003`). The updated implementation is
closer to the CoDel algorithm (RFC 8289)
- Pull ``FaceTable`` construction out of ``Forwarder`` class (:issue:`4922`, :issue:`4973`)
- Enable direct certificate fetch in ``RibManager`` (:issue:`2237`)
- Refuse to start NFD if both ``localhop_security`` and ``auto_prefix_propagate`` are
enabled in the configuration file (:issue:`4989`)
- Fix crash in self-learning strategy when the out-record of a PIT
entry does not exist (:issue:`5022`)
- Use a separate validator and a separate configuration section in ``nfd.conf`` for prefix
announcements (:issue:`5031`). The default configuration will accept any prefix
announcement.
- Documentation improvements
