contents The evolution from traditional IP-based networking to Named Data Networking (NDN) represents a paradigm shift to address the inherent limitations of current network architectures, such as scalability, mobility, and efficient data distribution. NDN introduces an information-centric approach where data is identified and retrieved based on names rather than locations, offering more efficient data dissemination and enhanced security. However, the transition to NDN, alongside the need to integrate it with existing IP infrastructures, necessitates the development of flexible and scalable testbeds that support diverse experimental scenarios across various physical media and networking protocol stacks. In this paper, we present NetScaNDN, a scalable, flexible, and plug-and-play testbed designed to facilitate such experiments. NetScaNDNl employs an automated process for node discovery, configuration, and installation, enabling seamless setup and execution of experiments on both wired and wireless infrastructures simultaneously. Additionally, it incorporates a central log repository using the syslog protocol, allowing comprehensive measurement and evaluation of user-defined metrics across different network layers. NetScaNDN offers a robust platform for researchers to explore and validate various networking scenarios, advancing the study of IP and NDN-based applications.
