Abstract

Content-Centric Networking (CCNx) is a network protocol that uses ahierarchical name to forward requests and to match responses torequests. This document specifies the encoding of CCNx messages in aTLV packet format, including the TLV types used by each messageelement and the encoding of each value. The semantics of CCNxmessages follow the encoding-independent CCNx Semanticsspecification.

This document is a product of the Information Centric Networkingresearch group (ICNRG). The document received wide review amongICNRG participants and has two full implementations currently inactive use, which have informed the technical maturity of theprotocol specification.
