route: updates to name prefixes are more efficent. With this change, only entries that have changed next-hops will cause any change in the name prefix table. Consequently, routing table calculations no longer cause RIB registrations for unchanged prefixes. However, this is not a problem because FIB entries refresh themselves. This resulted in the removal of a test from the TestNlsr suite. refs: #2864 Change-Id: If28a04cb7bb47a3a6c32cd24578c68885d08d6b3

NLSR is a routing protocol in NDN that populates NDN's Routing Information Base. NLSR will continue to evolve alongside the Named Data Networking protocol.
NLSR is an open and free software package licensed under the GPL 3.0 license and free to all Internet users and developers. For more information about the licensing details and limitations, refer to COPYING.md.
NLSR is developed by the members of the NSF-sponsored NDN project team. For more details, please refer to AUTHORS.md. Bug reports and feedback are highly appreciated and can be made through the Redmine site.
The main design goal of NLSR is to provide a routing protocol to populate NDN's FIB. NLSR calculates the routing table using link-state or hyperbolic routing and produces multiple faces for each reachable name prefix in a single authoritative domain. NLSR will continue to evolve over time to include neighbor discovery and to become a full fledged inter-domain routing protocol for NDN.
