Hi Olivier,

Sorry for the delay. It is indeed possible to have the topology described,
however bear in mind a couple of things.

First of all, you need to enable Proxy Map Reply since LISPmob doesn't
implement any synchronization mechanism across xTRs and thus it is not able
to reply with a full Map Reply (containing the RLOCs for all the xTRs).

Second, you need to ensure that the xTRs do not overwrite each other during
the Map Register process, since Map Registers from the xTRs will have the
same EID prefix but different locator-sets. For that you have two options,
one is to modify LISPmob to add the merge-semantics bit to the Map Register
and then use a Map Server that supports merge-semantics in order to combine
the Map Registers from the two xTRs. The other option is to disable Map
Register on LISPmob (just use a dummy address on the "map-server" conf
field) and then configure statically the Map Server with the appropriate
mapping for the LISP site. The second option will be probably the easiest.

Finally, although the incoming traffic will reach the host no matter which
xTR receives it, the outgoing traffic should be handled at host level (i.e.
by means adding extra routes with different gateways) if you want to
balance among the two xTRs.

Hope this helps,
Alberto
