The IESG has approved the following document: - 'LISP Map Server Interface' (draft-ietf-lisp-ms-16.txt) as an Experimental RFC This document is the product of the Locator/ID Separation Protocol Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Jari Arkko and Ralph Droms. A URL of this Internet Draft is: http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-lisp-ms/ Technical Summary This draft describes the LISP Map Server (LISP-MS), a computing system which provides a simplified LISP protocol interface as a "front end" to the Endpoint-ID (EID) to Routing Locator (RLOC) mapping database and associated virtual network of LISP protocol elements. The purpose of the Map Server is to reduce implementation and operational complexity of LISP Ingress Tunnel Routers (ITRs) and Egress Tunnel Routers (ETRs), the devices that implement the "edge" of the LISP infrastructure and which connect directly to LISP-capable Internet end sites. Working Group Summary The Last call for this document was extended to try to capture all concerns. There were concerns raised on caching and security effects. These have been included in the document as identified points in the relevant sections given that the document is Experimental. The SECURITY area required consideration of AKM. Document Quality There are 4 confirmed different implementations of LISP including map-server code, and the document has been reviewed at length with all the other LISP drafts reaching last call. Personnel The Document Shepherd is Joel Halpern and the responsible Area Director is Jari Arkko. _______________________________________________ IETF-Announce mailing list IETF-Announce@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf-announce
