[ NNSquad ] Re: [IP] Future Internet Architecture: Content-Centric Networking, a memory of the past
scaling may be an interesting factor. OpenFlow has centralized routing and that also raises scaling questions. How does inter-net routing work? what is the equivalent of BGP in OpenFlow systems (other than to make OpenFlow emulate "Internet" at the interface between autonomous systems - assuming "autonomous system" is preserved as a concept? If it is not preserved, is there something that replaces it? what does that look like? These questions may be asked of all the various layers of mapping and routing that scott brim outlines.
