151Release date: July 15, 2015
152
153Mini-NDN is a lightweight networking emulation tool that enables testing, experimentation, and
154research on the NDN platform. Based on Mininet, Mini-NDN uses the NDN libraries, NFD, NLSR, and
155tools released by the [NDN project](http://named-data.net/codebase/platform/) to emulate
156an NDN network on a single system.
157
158**Included features**:
159
160- Run a complete NDN network on a single system
161
162- Automatic configuration of NLSR to provide a routable NDN network
163
164- Supports user created NDN applications
165
166- Create a topology using the included Mini-NDN Edit GUI application
167
168- Allows individual configuration of NFD and NLSR parameters for each node
169
170- Provides an experiment management framework for easy creation of custom networking experiments
171
172- Uses a simple topology file format to define hosts, links, and configuration values
173
174- Configure network link parameters including bandwidth, delay, and loss rate
175
176- Includes a pre-configured topology file to replicate the NDN testbed
