ICN Management Considerations
draft-corujo-icn-mgmt-01
Abstract
This document aims to draw the attention of the ICNRG community to
network management, an important but hitherto underdeveloped area of
research in information-centric networking. We consider that the
availability of modern management mechanisms for information-centric
networks will foster their deployment in real-world environments.
For example, we argue that there is a need for creating basic network
management tools early on while ICN is still in the design and
experimentation phases that can evolve over time. Perhaps ICN can
borrow successful mechanisms from the host-centric paradigm and adapt
them to the new network primitives. Alternatively, novel network
management schemes can be designed based on ICN primitives. As a
discussion starter, this document summarizes recently published
approaches for ICN network management. In particular, this first
version presents a management framework for named data networking and
reviews previous work on NetInf management.

Internet-Draft ICN Management Considerations July 2013
1. Introduction
Information-centric networking (ICN) enables new ideas for naming and
addressing, privacy, security, and trust, and should also lead us to
think new ways for deploying, operating and managing networks in the
future. By default, users, programs, information objects and hosts
are in general untrustworthy and mobile in an information-centric
network. This means that many of the assumptions in traditional
network management, including all aspects of FCAPS (Fault,
Configuration, Accounting, Performance, and Security) need to be
rethought. However, despite the different instantiations of ICN
