Information About LISP Host Mobility Across Subnet

Devices configured with LISP Host Mobility ASM have the following characteristics:

  • Each edge router (xTR) is the first Layer-3 hop

  • Proxy-arp is enabled on the xTR's gateway interface

  • Each roaming site xTR should register with a common set of map-servers

  • Mobility hosts should not be "silent" after they move

  • A multicast configuration is needed by xTRs only if the site has multiple xTRs, for example for HSRP. A single xTR does not need to use multicasting.

  • Supports vmotion or live host mobility only in the case of North-South traffic

  • LISP encapsulation (ASM) is required for East-West traffic.
