Re: [MEXT] LISP as a solution for some part of the DMM requirement

Hello,

I fail to see how LISP would fall in the MEXT charter item, which concentrates on MIPv6-based DMM solution ('Operational considerations for distributed use of Mobile IPv6'). If LISP is foreseen as a potential solution for distributed mobility management, that should probably be discussed in the Network WG, where LISP and LISP MN are discussed.

Regards,
Romain
