Folks,
Thanks for the good dialog regarding "decoupling" and "isolation". So far, I
glean the following from the email thread:
- LISP decouples the forwarding and control plane, so
draft-ietf-lisp-introduction is correct
- LISP does not isolate the control plane from the forwarding plane, so RFC
6830 is also correct
Because both statements are correct and architecturally significant, they
*both* should appear in Section 2.1 of draft-ietf-lisp-introduction. Ideally,
these two statements should be juxtaposed to one another in order to highlight
the difference between "isolation" and "decoupling".
Each statement should include:
1) A title (i.e., Decoupled data and control-plane, Non-isolation
between data and control plane)
2) A sentence or two explaining what it means to be decoupled or
non-isolated
3) A cost/benefit statement
