Abstract :
The locator/identifier split is a design principle for new routing architectures that make Internet routing more scalable. To find the location of a host, it requires a mapping system that returns appropriate locators in response to map-requests for specific identifiers. In this paper, we propose FIRMS, a "Future Internet Routing Mapping System". It is fast, scalable, reliable, secure, and it is able to relay initial packets. We introduce its design, show how it deals with partial failures, explain its security concept, and evaluate its scalability.
