Abstract:

A method of enabling access to content in a network implementing Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) is described, the method including accessing a content addressing file including entries each comprising a content portion location associated with the content portion. The content portion location associated with the content portion is extracted for an entry and, based on the content portion location, a section of an IPv6 address for the content portion is formed. Methods of addressing content for storage and retrieving content are also described.
