The IESG has approved the following document: - 'LISP EID Block' (draft-ietf-lisp-eid-block-13.txt) as Experimental RFC This document is the product of the Locator/ID Separation Protocol Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Brian Haberman, Alvaro Retana, Alia Atlas and Deborah Brungard. A URL of this Internet Draft is: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-lisp-eid-block/ Technical Summary: This is a direction to IANA to allocate a /32 IPv6 prefix for use with the Locator/ID Separation Protocol (LISP). The prefix will be used for local intra-domain routing and global endpoint identification, by sites deploying LISP as EID (Endpoint IDentifier) addressing space. Working Group Summary: No concerns were expressed by the WG on the necessity of assigning an EID prefix for Internet LISP deployment. However, long discussions have been focused on the prefix length to be given for the EID prefix. After very long debates on the mailing list and WG meetings, the WG reached consensus on a /16 IPv6 prefix with a request to IANA to reserve adjacent space for future EID use/growth. Document Quality: The document is well written and of a high standard. No special review was performed nor is needed. The massive feedback and implication of the group indicates the willingness to use the requested prefix once assigned by IANA. People having contributed significantly to the work are well acknowledged in the document. Personnel: Who is the Document Shepherd?
