LISP has a decapsaltor/encasulator component called an RTR. An RTR can give you 
suboptimal paths by choice if you want to route around failures, congestion 
points, or use policy paths. You can find details in 
http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-farinacci-lisp-te.

But yes, you can have an RTR co-located with a firewall, laod-balancer, and NAT 
type middle devices.
