which also could be considered to be in the loc/id space

No, that's a misuse of "loc/id" since no identification is involved, even at the network layer -- but it is in the "reduce issues in global routing and local renumbering" space (that's part of what LISP does). 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. Scott
