LOCALHOP

const Name nfd::scope_prefix::LOCALHOP {"/localhop"}

inline

The localhop scope ndn:/localhop.

The localhop scope limits propagation to no further than the next node.

Interest packets under prefix ndn:/localhop are restricted by these rules:

• If an Interest is received from a local face, it can be forwarded to a non-local face.
• If an Interest is received from a non-local face, it cannot be forwarded to a non-local face.
• In either case the Interest can be forwarded to a local face.
• PIT entry can be satisfied by Data from any source.

Data packets under prefix ndn:/localhop are unrestricted.

LOCALHOST

const Name nfd::scope_prefix::LOCALHOST {"/localhost"}

inline

The localhost scope ndn:/localhost.

The localhost scope limits propagation to the applications on the originating host.

Interest and Data packets under prefix ndn:/localhost are restricted by these rules:

• Interest can come from and go to local faces only.
• Data can come from and go to local faces only.
