Abstract

This document describes the Locator/ID Separation Protocol DelegatedDatabase Tree (LISP-DDT), a hierarchical distributed database thatembodies the delegation of authority to provide mappings from LISPEndpoint Identifiers (EIDs) to Routing Locators (RLOCs). It is astatically defined distribution of the EID namespace among a set ofLISP-speaking servers called "DDT nodes". Each DDT node isconfigured as "authoritative" for one or more EID-prefixes, alongwith the set of RLOCs for Map-Servers or "child" DDT nodes to whichmore-specific EID-prefixes are delegated.
