Abstract:
A Network Access Point (NAP) in an ICN may have multiple clients requesting the same resource. Instead of sending multiple link-local unicast transmissions, the multiple clients may subscribe to a response bucket based on their unicast address and the NAP may send a multicast response to the group based on previously issued HTTP requests. The response bucket may contain multiple clients attached to the NAP. A multicast address of the response bucket may be used by the NAP to send the multicast response. A class D octet in the multicast group address may be derived from a class C octet of the individual client IP addresses.
