-In order to install **Mini-CCNx**, follow the steps below. All of them are required!
-
-### What equipment will I need ? 
- 
-Basically, you'll need a laptop/desktop with a recent Linux distro (Ubuntu, Fedora). We recommend Ubuntu. For this guide, the _Ubuntu 12.04 LTS_ was used. Also, note that you'll need administrative privileges in order to download and install extra packages and also to execute **Mini-CCNx**.
-
-### Installing CCNx
-
-Each node in **Mini-CCNx** will run the official implementation of CCNx. Let's get it.
-
-In the [Project CCNx](www.ccnx.org) webpage, you'll find all the details for installing the CCNx. See [Installing CCNx](https://www.ccnx.org/wiki/CCNx/InstallingCCNx). To use **Mini-CCNx** you won't need to create the init script as outlined in the prior link. But please, pay attention to the necessary pre-requisite packages, as they are, indeed, necessary.
-
-Now, to **Mini-CCNx** itself.
-
-### Downloading and installing **Mini-CCNx**
-
- If you don't have it yet, you'll need to have _git_ installed first. In Ubuntu, that would be:
-
-`sudo apt-get install git`
-
-Now, let's get the source code of **Mini-CCNx**.
-Go to your home directory and use the following command:
-
-`git clone git://github.com/carlosmscabral/mn-ccnx`
-
-As result, there will be a directory named _mn-ccnx_ in your home directory, containing all the source code.
-
-Still in your home directory, use the utility install script with the _-fnv_ options:
-
-`sudo ./mn-ccnx/util/install.sh -fnv`
-
-Pre-requisite packages will be downloaded and installed during the process.

+Mini-NDN Installing Instructions
+================================
+
+### What equipment will I need ?
+
+Basically, you'll need a laptop/desktop with a recent Linux distro (Ubuntu, Fedora).
+We recommend Ubuntu. For this guide, the _Ubuntu 14.04 LTS_ was used.
+Also, note that you'll need administrative privileges in order to download and install
+extra packages and also to execute **Mini-NDN**.
+
+### Installing NDN
+
+Each node in **Mini-NDN** will run the official implementation of NDN. Let's get it.
+
+Mini-NDN uses NFD, NLSR, and ndn-tlv-ping.
+
+To install NFD:
+http://named-data.net/doc/NFD/current/INSTALL.html
+
+To install NLSR:
+http://named-data.net/doc/NLSR/current/INSTALL.html
+
+To install ndn-tlv-ping:
+https://github.com/named-data/ndn-tlv-ping
+
+### Downloading and installing **Mini-NDN**
+
+If you don't have it yet, you'll need to have _git_ installed first. In Ubuntu, that would be:
+
+    sudo apt-get install git
+
+Now, let's get the source code of **Mini-NDN**.
+Go to your home directory and use the following command:
+
+    git clone https://github.com/named-data/mini-ndn
+
+As a result, there will be a directory named _mini-ndn_ in your home directory, containing all the source code.
+
+Still in your home directory, use the utility install script with _-fnv_ options:
+
+    sudo ./mini-ndn/util/install.sh -fnv
+
+where
+-f: install open(F)low
+-n: install mini(N)et dependencies + core files
+-v: install open (V)switch
+
+Prerequisite packages will be downloaded and installed during the process.
+
+### Verification
+
+Once everything is installed, the following command can be issued for verification from the home folder:
+
+    sudo minindn --pingall 50 --ctime 180 mini-ndn/ndn_utils/hyperbolic_conf_file/minindn.caida.conf
+
+where:
+--pingall: Will schedule and collect the specified number of pings from each node to every other node
+--ctime: Convergence time for NLSR, provide according to the size of the topology
+
+Note: The configuration file contains hyperbolic coordinates but hyperbolic routing will only be
+activated if --hr is provided
+
+All the ping logs will be stored under /tmp/node-name/ping-data and the command will provide a
+command line interface at the end.
