Abstract:
   The communication between LISP ETRs and Map-Servers is based on
   unreliable UDP message exchange coupled with periodic message
   transmission in order to maintain soft state.  The drawback of
   periodic messaging is the constant load imposed on both the ETR and
   the Map-Server.  New use cases for LISP have increased the amount of
   state that needs to be communicated with requirements that are not
   satisfied by the current mechanism.  This document introduces the use
   of a reliable transport for ETR to Map-Server communication in order
   to eliminate the periodic messaging overhead, while providing
   reliability, flow-control and endpoint liveness detection.
