Detailed Description

A forwarding strategy that randomly chooses a nexthop.

Sends the incoming Interest to a random outgoing face, excluding the incoming face.

◆ afterReceiveInterest()

	)

overridevirtual

Trigger after an Interest is received.

The Interest:

has not exceeded HopLimit
does not violate Scope
is not looped
cannot be satisfied by ContentStore
is under a namespace managed by this strategy

The PIT entry is set to expire after InterestLifetime has elapsed at each downstream.

The strategy should decide whether and where to forward this Interest.

If the strategy decides to forward this Interest, invoke sendInterest() for each upstream, either now or shortly after via a scheduler event, but before the PIT entry expires. Optionally, the strategy can invoke setExpiryTimer() to adjust how long it would wait for a response.
If the strategy has already forwarded this Interest previously and decides to continue waiting, do nothing. Optionally, the strategy can invoke setExpiryTimer() to adjust how long it would wait for a response.
If the strategy concludes that this Interest cannot be satisfied, invoke rejectPendingInterest() to erase the PIT entry.

Warning: The strategy must not retain a copy of the pitEntry shared_ptr after this function returns, otherwise undefined behavior may occur. However, the strategy is allowed to construct and keep a weak_ptr to pitEntry.

◆ afterReceiveNack()

void nfd::fw::RandomStrategy::afterReceiveNack	(	const lp::Nack &	nack,
		const FaceEndpoint &	ingress,
		const shared_ptr< pit::Entry > &	pitEntry
	)

overridevirtual

Trigger after a Nack is received.

This trigger is invoked when an incoming Nack is received in response to an forwarded Interest. The Nack has been confirmed to be a response to the last Interest forwarded to that upstream, i.e. the PIT out-record exists and has a matching Nonce. The NackHeader has been recorded in the PIT out-record.

If the PIT entry is not yet satisfied, its expiry timer remains unchanged. Otherwise, the PIT entry will normally expire immediately after this function returns.

If the strategy wishes to collect responses from additional upstream nodes, it should invoke setExpiryTimer() within this function to prolong the PIT entry lifetime. If a Nack arrives from another upstream during the extended PIT entry lifetime, this trigger will be invoked again. At that time, the strategy must invoke setExpiryTimer() again to continue collecting more responses.

In the base class, this method does nothing.

Warning: The strategy must not retain a copy of the pitEntry shared_ptr after this function returns, otherwise undefined behavior may occur. However, the strategy is allowed to construct and keep a weak_ptr to pitEntry.
