Apparently, humanity's current method of routing data through space is not that good and at a meeting of the body’s Architecture and Governance Working Group the group decided that a common interplanetary network architecture.

The network will have to populate forwarding tables or routing tables without human intervention and depart from the Earth-centric management scheme and be as fully automous as possible.

There should be a function enabling the bundle protocol agent to access a forwarding table API that answers the question: “where should I send this bundle and with what CLA/address?”, similar to ARP lookup Interoperability. There should be a common standard method of intra-regional routing, adopting methods that suit the needs of a specific environment or a mission.

Then there would be Node IDs, Addressing Schemes, and segmenting concepts need to be further explored to accommodate the scale of the SSI

The IPNSIG has already developed a technology called “Delay-Tolerant Networking” (DTN) that addresses the issue of latency but we doubt it has come up with a way of handling porn in space yet or if it can expand past Uranius.
