Re: [lisp] OPS-Dir review of draft-ietf-lisp-introduction-11

[Luigi Iannone <[e-mail]>]

Hi,

Aren’t we going into to much details for the intro document?

What if we change the sentence in the following way:

OLD (suggested by David)

"in the specific case of a VM/mobile node the EID-prefix should be /32 or /128 (IPv4 or IPv6 respectively)”

NEW

"In the mobility case the EID-prefix can be as small as a full /32 or /128 (IPv4 or IPv6 respectively) depending on the mobility use-case (e.g., subnet mobility vs single VM/Mobile node mobility)"


Opinions?

In the case of individually mobile debices or some vatiations on data center mobility, there is a need to mske sure the full EID is advertised in the mapping system.

> With LISP an EID-preifx can have an arbitrary length and can move (i.e., change its RLOC bindings), in the specific case of a VM/mobile node the EID-prefix should be /32 or /128 (IPv4 or IPv6 respectively). What doesn't work is the mobility of a node (assigned with a /32 or /128) *within* a coarser EID-prefix, in this case you need to split the prefix into more specifics and register them independently in the Mapping System, effectively creating new EID-prefixes.
