Properties of RLOC and EID
LISP: Locator/Identifier Separation Protocol
IP protocol LISP is a protocol for the transmission of IP
packets.
IP address pairs LISP uses IP address pairs:
• One IP address for identification, which is
called the EID (Endpoint Identifier). The EID
can be the IP address of a host or an entire
IP subnet.
• One IP address for the location, known as
the RLOC (Routing Locator). The RLOC is the
IP address of the LISP router.
Tunnel protocol LISP is a tunnel protocol.
A LISP packet consists of an internal IP packet
and an additional external header. The header
of the internal packet contains the EID; the ex-
ternal header contains the RLOC.
RLOC
• specifies the location where the addressed network (net-
work segment or network device) is located
• is assigned by the Internet service provider
• is a public IP address
• is contained in the external header of the LISP packet
• can be an IPv4 address
• can be an IPv6 address
EID
• identifies a network (network segment or network device)
• is assigned by the LISP provider
• is contained in the internal header of the LISP packet
• can be an IPv4 address
• can be an IPv6 address
• can be a public IP address
• can be a private, non-public IP address
