Task #1719

Updated by Junxiao Shi over 10 years ago

[[RibMgmt]] *Origin* field has these choices currently: static, nlsr, app. 

 However, none of these choices fits the following two scenarios: 

 * a laptop connects to a HUB, and it sends a prefix registration command to the HUB (using `ndn:/localhop/nfd/rib` prefix) 
 * a laptop connects to a HUB, and the `nfd-autoreg` server on a HUB automatically registers a Route toward the laptop 
 * a laptop connects to a HUB, and the `ndn-autoconf` tool registers a prefix toward the HUB 

 This Task proposes to define three two additional values for *Origin* field: 

 * **client**: indicates a Route toward a client node attached to this router, installed via remote registration 
 * **autoreg**: indicates a Route toward a client node attached to this router, registered automatically by this router 
 * **autoconf**: indicates a Route toward a HUB from the laptop, registered automatically by the `ndn-autoconf` tool
