| |
| Mini-NDN is a lightweight networking emulation tool that enables testing, experimentation, and |
| research on the NDN platform. Based on Mininet, Mini-NDN uses the NDN libraries, NFD, NLSR, and |
| tools released by the [NDN project](http://named-data.net/codebase/platform/) to emulate |
| an NDN network on a single system. |
| |
| **Included features**: |
| |
| - Run a complete NDN network on a single system |
| |
| - Automatic configuration of NLSR to provide a routable NDN network |
| |
| - Supports user created NDN applications |
| |
| - Create a topology using the included Mini-NDN Edit GUI application |
| |
| - Allows individual configuration of NFD and NLSR parameters for each node |
| |
| - Provides an experiment management framework for easy creation of custom networking experiments |
| |
| - Uses a simple topology file format to define hosts, links, and configuration values |
| |
| - Configure network link parameters including bandwidth, delay, and loss rate |
| |
| - Includes a pre-configured topology file to replicate the NDN testbed |
