NFD

Just making sure... this producer responds only to the first stage of the protocol. Stages 2 & 3 should be answered by the DNS server (task #1297?)

Also, can you please elaborate on the data response? ("The value of this block is the URI for the HUB, preferably a UDP tunnel").

The published value should be just a string, containing face URI. Like

udp://hostname.domain

or

udp://192.168.2.1:6363

You don't need to parse or configure these URIs. They should be directly configured by the node operator (e.g., as a command-line argument).

Payload is not "just a string". It’s a FaceMgmt URI wrapped in Uri TLV-BLOCK.

Having a TLV-BLOCK is useful, because additional fields may be added in the future.

The tool doesn’t need to construct the FaceUri by itself. It could read it from a command line argument.

1. configure ndn-cpp-dev with flag --without-osx-keychain
2. recompile and install ndn-cpp-dev
3. rm -rf $HOME/.ndnx
4. ndnsec-keygen - | ndnsec-install-cert -
5. export NFD=1

If you are unsure whether it's a problem with your producer, test with ndn-tlv-ping first.

Thank you.

Still having the same problem. ndnpingserver results in the same nfd crash (used to work before). I will try to debug it now to see if I can find a problem with my set up.

Producer crashing is similar to Bug #1351, which is fixed now. Is your producer still causing NFD crash?

I'll have to go back and test it on my mac. (I switched to use my ubuntu vm because of this crash)
