RE: [RRG] LISP, IPv6 and 6to4



Tony,

I guess I will have just one more word on this. If the LISP
sites are organized as dual-stack nodes that have IPv6 addresses
that appear as EIDs for LISP, but use IPv4 private addresses for
the site-internal organization, then there is dual-stack and no
need for NAT-PT.

This is exactly the use case scenario for ISATAP.
