Abstract
This document describes the design for inter-domain multicast overlays using the Locator/ID Separation Protocol (LISP) architecture and protocols. The document specifies how LISP multicast overlays operate over a unicast underlays. When multicast sources and receivers are active at Locator/ID Separation Protocol (LISP) sites, the core network is required to use native multicast so packets can be delivered from sources to group members. When multicast is not available to connect the multicast sites together, a signal-free mechanism can be used to allow traffic to flow between sites. The mechanism within here uses unicast replication and encapsulation over the core network for the data plane and uses the LISP mapping database system so encapsulators at the source LISP multicast site can find decapsulators at the receiver LISP multicast sites.
