is a reinvention of geography based addressing not acceptable by ISPs in the real world.
2. Separation between Locators and Identifiers. Even though it was not documented in the requirement specification of IPv6, growth of routing table have become a real problem. One of the source of this growth is the way site multihoming has been supported in the existing system. Designers spent hell lot of time to come up with solutions like ILNP/LISP (with the concept of PI addresses)
LISP is not a solution but yet another garbage. Attempt to convert ID to locator at the end (using ID as locator) means loss of reachability to the end results in lack of conversion, which is not multihoming. Additional "optimization" to convert ID to locator also in the network is against the E2E principle needing conversion information, amount of which is at least proportional to the number of multihomed sites, in the network, which is no better than having global routing table entries, number of which is proportional to the number of multihomed sites. To make multihoming scale, think end to end, which means both ends must be involved to make multihoming scale, which is what draft-ohta-e2e-multihoming-* proposes. Masataka Ohta
