Folks,
In Section 4.1 of the draft-ietf-lisp you say:
In order to defer the need for a mapping lookup in the reverse
direction, an ETR MAY create a cache entry that maps the source EID
(inner header source IP address) to the source RLOC (outer header
source IP address) in a received LISP packet. Such a cache entry is
termed a "gleaned" mapping and only contains a single RLOC for the
EID in question. More complete information about additional RLOCs
SHOULD be verified by sending a LISP Map-Request for that EID. Both
ITR and the ETR may also influence the decision the other makes in
selecting an RLOC. See Section 6 for more details.
Has anyone thought through the security implications and possible unexpected
side effects of these "gleaned" mappings?
Ron
