The Locator-ID separation protocol (LISP) is an experimental networking protocol in the Internet Engineering Task Force draft stage.[1] It allows incremental introduction of IPv6 into the existing IPv4 core, by separating the mapping of routing locators from endpoint identifiers. It also can be used purely for IPv6.
