Abstract
Aspects of the disclosure are directed to systems, network nodes, and methods performed in a network node. A network node can host a TCP/ICN proxy for routing TCP packets through an ICN network. The network node can serve as a forward proxy or a reverse proxy. As a forward proxy, the network node can receive a first packet at the network node, the first packet compliant with a Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) protocol; encapsulate one or more TCP headers from the first packet into a payload field of a second packet, the second packet compliant with an Information Centric Networking (ICN) protocol; and transmit the second packet to a destination through an ICN network. As a reverse proxy, the network node can receive an ICN packet from an ICN network, decapsulate the ICN packet to its TCP components, and transmit the TCP packet through a TCP network.
