Abstract


  This is a direction to IANA to allocate a /16 IPv6 prefix for use
  with the Locator/ID Separation Protocol (LISP).  The prefix will be
  used for local intra-domain routing and global endpoint
  identification, by sites deploying LISP as EID (Endpoint IDentifier)
  addressing space.

I have to ask, who can request an netblock from this address space and
from where?

Who: whoever is willing to deploy LISP.

Where: your RIR? 


I might be blind but I couldn't find it mentioned anywhere.


The purpose of the document is not to create a new way to distribute prefixes 
with its own policies, rather to use the existing "process" but just creating a 
code point specific for LISP.


Luigi
