>    document specifies how LISP multicast overlays operate over a unicast
>    underlays.
>    When multicast sources and receivers are active at Locator/ID
>    Separation Protocol (LISP) sites, the core network is required to use
>    native multicast so packets can be delivered from sources to group
>    members.  When multicast is not available to connect the multicast
>    sites together, a signal-free mechanism can be used to allow traffic
>    to flow between sites.  The mechanism within here uses unicast
>    replication and encapsulation over the core network for the data
>    plane and uses the LISP mapping database system so encapsulators at
>    the source LISP multicast site can find decapsulators at the receiver
>    LISP multicast sites.  This document when approved obosletes RFC8378.
