LISP Mapping Resolution Impacts on Initiating Bidirection-al End-to-End Communications

In order to solve scalability problems of routing and addressing architec-tures of the current Internet, Locator/ID Separation Protocol (LISP) has been proposed. LISP requires mapping resolutions between a locator and an ID and such resolutions may impact on communications. In this paper, we empirically show its impact on in-itiating end-to-end bidirectional communications based upon actual LISP environment. We then discuss solutions to overcome impacts and imply that Data Probe may be a solution by applying it only to DNS queries, responses, TCP SYN and SYN+ACK
