Re: [lisp] Requesting comments on draft-vgovindan-pim-jp-extensions-lisp

Hi all

I'm aware of implementations of RFC 8059 by Cisco. Does anyone know of
other implementations?

Regards,
Stig

> 1. Problem Statement : In a multi-site LISP topology [https://www.ietf.org/proceedings/72/slides/RRG-3.pdf], the site border nodes operate in 3 different PIM domains (2 in the underlay, one facing the LISP site and one facing the transit site and the third domain in the overlay):

> b. Given the above consideration of reusing the locator address in both directions, using the same underlay multicast address range in the 2 different underlay PIM domains may cause packet loops.
> c. This is because the hashing of the overlay parameters to obtain the underlay group could result in hash collisions as described in Sec 8.1.2 of RFC 6831
> d. The LISP border nodes downstream also face similar constraints.
> e. Hence, we propose a reasonable trade-off to make extra copies of the packet at the site border using different multicast address ranges to avoid packet loops. However this need not always de-generate to ingress replication.
> 2. The base idea of the draft is an extension of the RLOC receiver TLV specified in RFC8059. While RFC8059 defined the TLV for Ingress Replication (LISP Multicast over Unicast tunnels), the new draft tries to define TLVs needed for LISP multicast over Native multicast.
