I have updated the Ivip-arch ID to cover the new Distributed Real Time Mapping (DRTM) system.
This is very different from the system Ivip used until recently. It does not require any server hold the entire mapping database, or involve a single globally coordinated mapping distribution system. As before, it provides end-user networks - or whoever they appoint to control their mapping - with real-time control of the way ITRs tunnel packets. This also enables end-user networks to scalably gain portability, multihoming and inbound TE without initial investment by ISPs. The initiatives and investments are made by whatever companies are leasing the SPI "edge" space to end-user neworks. The Ivip IDs are: http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-whittle-ivip-arch 04 http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-whittle-ivip-drtm 01 http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-whittle-ivip-glossary 01 and, of lesser importance: http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-whittle-ivip-etr-addr-forw 00 My arguments for Ivip, with reference to all other proposals, are here: Recommendation suggestion from RW (v2) http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/rrg/current/msg06219.html - Robin _______________________________________________ rrg mailing list rrg@irtf.org http://www.irtf.org/mailman/listinfo/rrg
