I said *could*. Don't take this for a design. There are lots of details lacking.

something like the APT idea where the full mappings are

path of any leaf is an alternative worth examining.

We have stated before that LISP-ALT routers could cache
mappings. This can help with Map-Request latency. And if the
mappings are cached do to seeing Map-Replies or because they
are pushed with some other protocol, then so be it.

Does that mean the mapping system ( ALT overlay ) would spread some outdated
mapping informations to the ITRs? Besides, will it make the ALT router
become another vulnerable place?
