Standardization: Contributions to the IETF LISP WG

Contibutor: Damien Saucez

In the context of the LISP WG, we contributed to an Internet-draft called "An Architectural Introduction to the LISP Location-Identity Separation System"  [25] that describes the architecture of the Locator/ID Separation Protocol (LISP), making it easier to read the rest of the LISP specifications and providing a basis for discussion about the details of the LISP protocols.  This document is used for introductory purposes, more details can be found in RFC6830, the protocol specification. This internet-draft is in RFC queue, for imminent publication as RFC.

In the context of the LISP WG, we contributed to an Internet-draft called "LISP Threats Analysis"  [33] that proposes a threat analysis of the Locator/Identifier Separation Protocol (LISP). This internet-draft is under discussion in the Working Group.

In the context of the LISP WG, we contributed to an Internet-draft called "LISP-Security (LISP-SEC)" [28] that specifies LISP-SEC, a set of security mechanisms that provides origin authentication, integrity and anti-replay protection to LISP's EID-to-RLOC mapping data conveyed via mapping lookup process.  LISP-SEC also enables verification of authorization on EID-prefix claims in Map-Reply messages. This internet-draft is under discussion in the Working Group.

In the context of the LISP WG, we contributed to an Internet-draft called "LISP Impact" [32] . The Locator/Identifier Separation Protocol (LISP) aims at improving the Internet scalability properties leveraging on three simple principles: address role separation, encapsulation, and mapping.  In this internet-draft, based on implementation, deployment, and theoretical studies, we discuss the impact that deployment of LISP can have on both the Internet in general and for the end-users in particular. This internet-draft is adopted as Working Group document on December 2014.
