Prior arguing with long-path, stretch etc. I have another
informative question (maybe I missed something too during the
discussion): Why LISP 1.5 ? Why not LISP 2 ? or directly:
Why doesn't the ITR intercept and enhance the DNS lookup as to also
request the eRLOC address in addition to the dest IP address? It can
also intercept the respective response and store (EID, eRLOC).
1) Because not all communication uses DNS.
2) Because DNS queries go out one xTR and replies can come in through
another xTR.
3) Because you don't want a architectural circular dependency between
directory and routing.
Do you want more reasons?
