Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) D. Farinacci Request for Comments: 8060 lispers.net Category: Experimental D. Meyer ISSN: 2070-1721 Brocade J. Snijders NTT February 2017 LISP Canonical Address Format (LCAF) Abstract This document defines a canonical address format encoding used in Locator/ID Separation Protocol (LISP) control messages and in the encoding of lookup keys for the LISP Mapping Database System. Status of This Memo This document is not an Internet Standards Track specification; it is published for examination, experimental implementation, and evaluation. This document defines an Experimental Protocol for the Internet community. This document is a product of the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF). It represents the consensus of the IETF community. It has received public review and has been approved for publication by the Internet Engineering Steering Group (IESG). Not all documents approved by the IESG are a candidate for any level of Internet Standard; see Section 2 of RFC 7841.
