Cameron: As for ILNP, it's going to be difficult to get from where things are now to a world where ILNP is not just useless overhead. When you finally do, considering what it gives you, will the journey have been worth it? LISP apparently has more benefits, and NPT6 is so much easier -- particularly if you have rapid adaptation to apparent address changes, which many apps have and all mobile devices need already -- sorry but I don't think ILNP is going to make it. You can't just say "the IETF should pay more attention". I've invited people to promote it and nobody stepped up.
"Difficult" depends on your time horizon. Ipv6 is/was difficult. Sctp is difficult, but I remain bullish on its value. ILNP may be more difficult, but i believe it is strategically correct. We can disagree on merits of competing RESEARCH topics. I am just providing "ops feedback ", to bring this thread full circle. Lastly, we must make sure that LISP does not become the next 6to4 where good intentions for RESEARCH become a quantifiable network nightmare. Cb
