StackHelper: option to disable RIB
Added by Junxiao Shi over 8 years ago.
Updated over 8 years ago.
Description
In scenarios that do not use ndn-cxx Face, it's unnecessary to run RIB.
Running RIB not only consumes more memory, but also can cause problems in certain experiments where the packet format is modified and thus breaks signatures.
This solution was proposed during 20151110 conference call.
Might it be worth to consider that some (though not all!) of the management stuff in L3Protocol::initializeManagement() (see ndn-l3-protocol.cpp#L219-L267) is optional? For instance the StatusServer should not be necessary for all simulations (clearly not the most "expensive" component, but it's a start).
