  • Abstract
    Using domain names for routing, instead of IP prefixes, has the potential to address many of the core outstanding issues in today´s Internet. To initiate research in that direction, this paper compares the performance of name-based routing in the core of the Internet with that of IPv4 routing. Our analysis concludes that name-based routing is well within the scope of feasibility.
