LISP Part 2 - Mapping Database Infr...Google Tech Talk February 17, 2010 ABSTRACT Presented by Dino Farinacci. In Part 1, we discussed how endpoint IDs and routing Locators are used to provide a level of indirection for routing and addressing. This session will describe all the database mapping algorithms we have considered for mapping an EID to a set of Locators. We will take about the technical challenges of each and brainstorm about the business models that develop as a result of each mapping database algorithm. We will then show how LISP can be deployed to interoperate non-LISP site that run IPv4 and/or IPv6 for a seamless integration. Dino Farinacci: Dino originally joined Cisco in spring of 1991 and was one of the first two Cisco Fellows. He has built routers for 27 years.
