LISP Control-Plane Multicast Signaling
draft-farinacci-lisp-mr-signaling-04
Abstract
This document describes an alternate method to signal multicast tree
building among xTRs in multicast capable LISP sites. This approach
avoids the need to run a multicast routing protocol on the LISP
overlay.

The Locator/ID Separation Architecture [RFC6830] provides a mechanism
to separate out Identification and Location semantics from the
current definition of an IP address. By creating two namespaces, an
Endpoint ID (EID) namespace used by sites and a Routing Locator
