Well, you don't need addresses for clients, just for content... =46rom =
the architecture page at http://named-data.net/project/archoverview/:
"Note that neither Interest nor Data packets carry any host or interface =
addresses (such as IP addresses); Interest packets are routed towards =
data producers based on the names carried in the Interest packets, and =
Data packets are returned based on the state information set up by the =
Interests at each router hop."
So it's basically suggesting a NAT-like table in every single router. =
And we all know how well NAT boxes scale...
Cheers,
Sander
