I agree with Dino here. There has never been a requirement that the
LISP data plane work with anything other than the LISP control plane.
Strictly speaking, it is not even a requirement that the LISP control
plane be capable of supporting anything other than the LISP data plane.
However, we have found that to be useful, and so are going a short way
down that path (there are still assumptions abou tthe data plane
behavior that are needed for control plane robustness, which is fine.)

Actually we should merge this section with 'Routing Locator Hashing’
I disagree with you guys. Who do you think punts packets when there is a
map-cache miss? The data-plane. Note there are many users of the control-plane,
an SDN controller, many data-planes, and lig/rig. How they each use the
control-plane is documented in their own documents.
And please do not suggest that lig/rig usage of the control plane move to
6833bis.
As an example, if we keep the 'Routing Locator Hashing' text as it is then it
only works with Map-Reply messages:
"When an ETR provides an EID-to-RLOC mapping in a Map-Reply message that is
stored in the map-cache of a requesting ITR”
The point is to allow LISP data-plane to work with any control-plane.
No that has never been a requirement. We have stated (in the charter) that we
can use any data-plane “with the LISP control-plane”. We have never discussed
and it was never a requirement to do the converse.
