Locator/ID Separation Protocol Distinguished Name Encoding
RFC 9735, “Locator/ID Separation Protocol Distinguished Name Encoding”, is a Proposed Standard document published in February 2025 by D. Farinacci, L. Iannone. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
This document defines how to use the Address Family Identifier (AFI) 17 "Distinguished Name" in the Locator/ID Separation Protocol (LISP). LISP introduces two new numbering spaces: Endpoint Identifiers (EIDs) and Routing Locators (RLOCs). Distinguished Names (DNs) can be used in either EID-Records or RLOC-Records in LISP control messages to convey additional information.
What “Proposed Standard” means
An entry-level standards-track specification: stable, peer-reviewed and a solid basis for implementation, though it may still evolve before becoming an Internet Standard.
