Ron,

I think that Dino is suggesting that ISP's with their own populations deploy 
PITRs for this /32 prefix and announce the /32 into BGP with a no-export 
community, so that you as an ISP provide encapsulation as close to source of 
your customer population only.  This will (1) save you transit costs to another 
PITR provider for this prefix. You would only be paying for transit if the RLOC 
were not on your network. where otherwise you might be paying for transit 
between two of your customers. (2) it will give your customers an optimal path 
because you are encapsulating close to the source. and this will (3) allow for 
PITR Gateways to be deployed on smaller equipment.

Also, this would not stop a given EID who wants to have global reachability 
from a given PITR gateway system from buying "EID Transit" from a PITR provider 
who will announce the more specific EID prefix out of the /32 for a price.  I 
don't know that announcing a more specific globally is a great idea, though.  
It actually could cause traffic to take a less direct path.

Hi Dino,

Could you be a bit more explicit?

Please assume the following operator requirements:

- In order to ensure the customer experience, an operator wants to attract all 
traffic from the global Internet to LISP sites that it supports through PITRs 
that it operates.
- In order to maintain financial viability, that same operator does not want to 
attract any traffic from the global Internet to LISP sites that it does not 
support through PITRs that it operates.

Do you agree that these are both valid requirements? If so, how can the 
operator do this while advertising only large aggregates of the EID address 
block to the global Internet?

                                                                            Ron
