RFC 9735: Locator/ID Separation Protocol (LISP) Distinguished Name Encoding

In plain English — editorial summary, not part of the RFC

This document defines how to use the Address Family Identifier (AFI) 17 "Distinguished Name" in the Locator/ID Separation Protocol (LISP). LISP introduces two new numbering spaces: Endpoint Identifiers (EIDs) and Routing Locators (RLOCs). Distinguished Names (DNs) can be used in either EID-Records or RLOC-Records in LISP control messages to convey additional information.
