| Alexander Afanasyev | 7decbbf | 2014-08-24 21:29:01 -0700 | [diff] [blame^] | 9 | The main design goal of NLSR is to provide a routing protocol to populate `NFD's |
| 10 | <http://named-data.net/doc/NFD/current/>`_ RIB. NLSR calculates the routing table using |
| 11 | link-state or hyperbolic routing and produces multiple faces for each reachable name |
| 12 | prefix in a single authoritative domain. |
