The RRG charter lists four focus items: scalability, mobility, multi-homing, and inter-domain traffic engineering. Then, according to your point, scalability is not an issue anymore...? How then has LIS improved multi-homing than the status quo? How significantly has LISP helped inter-domain traffic engineering? It might help mobility a bit, but as far as connection resilience is concerned, the same effect could have been met by a session layer; your session does not break at transient breakage of transport connections. I do take ILNP as one of the smartest LIS solution; no reservation. My question is rather why we've indulged in LIS if routing scalability were not an issue? -- DY
