Do better what? For ID->locator mapping, DNS is the way to go and there is no point involving routing systems. For multihoming, current BGP unicast routing system is doing it poorly but no worse than LISP. For frequently changing locators, mobile IP takes care of them with home agents, without flooding mobility information all over the global routing system. The point of ID/locator separation is to identify transport connection by ID only, which enables locator rewriting. Source locator rewriting makes it reliable. Destination locator rewriting is sometimes useful for forwarding without MTU reduction by IP over IP. That's all. Masataka Ohta
