Abstract

The invention relates to methods and devices of distributing data content in an Information Centric Networking (ICN) network where access of a wireless communication device publishing the data content is transferred from a source access point serving wireless communication device to a target access point. In an aspect of the invention, a method performed by a source access point () is provided for distributing data content in an ICN network () where access of a wireless communication device () publishing the data content is transferred from the source access point () serving the wireless communication device () to a target access point (). The method comprises notifying (S) the target access point () of an ICN routing identifier associated with the wireless communication device () providing the requested data content, notifying (S) the target access point () of any pending ICN requests directed to the wireless communication device () such that that any data content provided by the wireless communication device () to the target access point () is forwarded to the original requester, and updating (S) an ICN Forwarding Information Base, FIB, at the source access point () such that any ICN request directed to the wireless communication device () is forwarded to the target access point ().
