Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method and a device for fast forwarding a flow traffic in an information-centric networking (ICN). According to the present invention, a flow switching method for a network node of an information-centric networking (ICN) includes: identifying a data name contained in a received interest packet and identifying a flow name from the data name, thereby determining whether a flow entry corresponding to the identified flow name is present within a flow table (FT); identifying forwarding information base (FIB) entry information matched to the flow name from the corresponding flow entry and identifying an FIB entry corresponding to the FIB entry information; and transmitting the interest packet on the basis of interface information included in the identified FIB entry.
