Task #1371
Updated by Alex Afanasyev about 10 years ago
For the first release we would need to have an equivalent of AUTOREG functionality: whenever a client connects to the hub, hub should automatically set up FIB entry for pre-configured prefix towards the new face. The implementation should be done as a separate ``nfd-autoreg-server`` app, which uses [[FaceMgmt#Face-Status-Change-Notification]] [[FaceNotification]] protocol to receive notifications about new faces and [[FibMgmt]] protocol to insert appropriate entries to the NFD's FIB. ``nfd-autoreg-server`` should have it own configuration file, which specifies list of prefixes for automatic registration and whitelist/blacklist of IP addresses/networks to enable/disable AUTOREG functionality (e.g., autoreg MUST not be enabled for faces between hubs that run routing protocol).
