LISP ACT Values

Registration Procedure(s)

  • IETF Review or IESG Approval

Reference

  • RFC 9301: Locator/ID Separation Protocol (LISP) Control Plane

Available Formats

Value Action Description Reference
0 No-Action The map-cache is kept alive and no packet encapsulation occurs. RFC 9301
1 Natively-Forward The packet is not encapsulated or dropped but natively forwarded. RFC 9301
2 Send-Map-Request The packet invokes sending a Map-Request. RFC 9301
3 Drop/No-Reason A packet that matches this map-cache entry is dropped. An ICMP Unreachable message SHOULD be sent. RFC 9301
4 Drop/Policy-Denied A packet matching this Map-Cache entry is dropped because the target EID is policy-denied by the xTR or the Mapping System. RFC 9301
5 Drop/Auth-Failure A packet matching this Map-Cache entry is dropped because the Map-Request for the target EID fails an authentication check by the xTR or the Mapping System. RFC 9301
6-7 Unassigned
