ipv6 lisp itr

To configure a Cisco NX-OS device to act as an IPv6 Locator/ID Separation Protocol (LISP) Ingress
Tunnel Router (ITR), use the ipv6 lisp itr command. To remove LISP ITR functionality, use the no form
of this command.
This command has no arguments or keywords.

Usage Guidelines
Tunnel Router (ITR) functionality.
When a Cisco NX-OS device is configured as an ITR, if a packet is received for which no IPv6
destination address prefix match exists in the routing table or which matches a default route (you can
configure that the source address of the packet matches an IPv4 EID-prefix block configured by using
the ipv6 lisp database-mapping command or ipv6 lisp map-cache command, the packet is a candidate
for LISP routing. The ITR looks in the LISP map cache and forwards either the packet, drop the packet,
send a Map-Request, or LISP-encapsulates the packet.
If there is no match in the LISP map cache, the ITR might use one of two methods to obtain an IPv6
EID-to-RLOC mapping. When a Map-Resolver is configured when you enter the ipv6 lisp itr
map-resolver command, the ITR sends its Map-Request in a LISP Encapsulated Control Message
(ECM) to the Map-Resolver. When the ITR is attached to the ALT using the ipv6 lisp alt-vrf command,
the ITR sends its Map-Request directly on the alternate LISP topology (LISP-ALT). The ITR caches the
IPv4 EID-to-RLOC mapping information returned by the associated Map-Reply in its map-cache.
Subsequent packets destined to the same IPv6 EID-prefix block are then LISP-encapsulated according
to this IPv4 EID-to-RLOC mapping entry.
An ITR can also be configured as an ETR. However, the LISP architecture does not require this
