Uberlay Interconnection of Multiple LISP overlays
2019
This document describes the use of the Locator/ID Separation Protocol
(LISP) to interconnect multiple disparate and independent network
overlays by using a transit overlay. The transit overlay is referred
to as the "uberlay" and provides connectivity and control plane
abstraction between different overlays. Each network overlay may use
different control and data plane approaches and may be managed by a
different organization. Structuring the network into multiple network
overlays enables the interworking of different overlay approaches to
data and control plane methods. The different network overlays are
autonomous from a control and data plane perspective, this in turn
enables failure survivability across overlay domains. This document
specifies the mechanisms and procedures for the distribution of
control plane information across overlay sites and in the uberlay as
well as the lookup and forwarding procedures for unicast and multicast
traffic within and across overlays. The specification also defines the
procedures to support inter-overlay mobility of EIDs and their
integration with the intra-overlay EID mobility procedures defined in
draft-ietf-lisp-eid-mobility.
