I think it's important to point out that all these features which require in-network anchoring e.g. multicast replication, mobility/motion, chaining, NAT traversal, anycast ... in lisp, use ONE consistent methodology - a "floating" anchor in the mapping database can be unambiguously resolved & realized dynamically at the network edge Ingres just in time.
Would really be good if this systemic anchoring approach is carried over to nvo3, 
rather then each such feature will be built based on a whole new methodology-terminology.
