Description

CCNx is an open-source network protocol developed by Cisco Systems for content-centric networking. It stands for Content Centric Networking, and it is a type of communications protocol that seeks to create an efficient and secure way to move content through a distributed network. CCNx is based on the Internet Protocol (IP), and it uses content-based routing to move data from its source to its destination. It also uses a set of security and privacy enhancements to protect the data being transmitted. The protocol is designed to be more efficient than traditional IP routing, as it eliminates unnecessary data retransmissions, reduces routing latency, and can be used to increase network scalability. CCNx is designed to be flexible and extensible, making it suitable for a wide range of applications, including video streaming, file sharing, and Internet of Things (IoT) applications.
