Luigi,
 
SEAL is right now implemented as a Linux kernel protocol module, and
used to support tunnel-mode and transport-mode applications. It sounds
like what you need is an application-mode instantiation of SEAL, where
the layering would be something like:
 
  Inner-IP/LISP-SEAL/UDP/Outer-IP
 
In that case, to do it at the application layer we would simply need to
pull the 'seal.c' code up into your application and implement some kind 
of packet filter that could capture IPv4 first-fragments ICMPv4 "Fragment
Needed" messages at the application layer. That shouldn't be too hard, I
don't think?
 
I'll desist now since this is vectoring off into discussion that should go
to the other lists. But, I just wanted to have this application-layer
implementation option for SEAL out on the table since it isn't well
documented in the current spec.

        Hi Fred, 

        in the new openlisp report we cited seal (section 6.8.2)

        I do not know yet the details of your implementation, but if it runs in 
the user space, thanks to OpenLISP's mapping sockets, to set MTU towards 
specific RLOCs is pretty easy.

        Cheers

        Luigi

                Integrating LISP with SEAL is a possible next step of interest.
                If you would like to try putting your implementation together
                with SEAL, let me know:

                (IMHO, in the future our LISP should be SEALed.)

implementations

                        Hello,

                        To allow researchers to experiment with some of the 
mechanisms 
                        that are 
                        being extensively discussed on the RRG mailing lists, 
we are happy to 
                        announce the public release of two implementations :

                        - OpenLISP is the first publicly available 
implementation of 
                        the Locator 
                        Identifier Separation Protocol (LISP) that has been 
extensively 
                        discussed within the RRG. OpenLISP runs on the FreeBSD 
kernel and has 
                        been written by Luigi Iannone.

                        - LinShim6 is the first implementation of the shim6 
IPv6 host-based 
                        multihoming solution developped within the IETF shim6 
working group. 
                        LinShim6 runs on the Linux kernel and has been written 
by 
                        Sebastien Barré.

                        You can find additional details (implementation 
reports, source code, 
                        papers, ...) about these two implementations from our 
webpage :

                        Best regards,


                        Olivier Bonaventure

                        PS: Discussion about LISP/shim6 should be sent on the 
                        lisp/shim6 mailing 
                        lists and not on the RRG mailing list
