Re: [lisp] LISP Interworking: Proxy Egress Tunnel Routers



This working group is not chartered to develop solutions to the IPv4-IPv6 transition problem. We have plenty of other working groups in that space already.

Of course, I understand that pretty much any tunneling or translation technique can be used for IPv6 deployment as well. I do not mind if such use case gets mentioned in a list of other potential uses of Lisp. However, the main use case, deployment rationale, etc. needs to stand on its own and talk about routing scalability, traffic engineering, and other things central to Lisp. I also understand that what we develop technology X for may not be what it eventually gets used for; we've been surprised before. Lets see what happens with Lisp. But for the RFCs that come out of this working group, lets focus on the initial main reason why Lisp was developed.
