    <section title="Introduction">
      <t>The Locator/ID Separation Protocol (LISP, <xref
      target="RFC6830"></xref> ) base specification defines a set of
      primitives that are identified with a packet type code. Several
      extensions have been proposed to add more LISP functionalities. For
      example, new message types are proposed in <xref
      target="I-D.ietf-lisp-ddt"></xref>, <xref
      target="I-D.zhao-lisp-mn-extension"></xref>, <xref
      target="I-D.boucadair-lisp-bulk"></xref>, <xref
      target="I-D.ermagan-lisp-nat-traversal"></xref>, or <xref
      target="I-D.boucadair-lisp-subscribe"></xref>. It is expected that
      additional LISP extensions will be proposed in the future.</t>

      <t>In order to ease the tracking of LISP message types, this document
      proposes to create a "LISP Packet Types" IANA registry (see <xref
      target="iana"></xref>).</t>

      <t>Because of the limited type space <xref target="RFC6830"></xref>,
      this document specifies a shared LISP message type for experimentation
      purposes and proposes a procedure for registering LISP experiment
      sub-types (see <xref target="exp"></xref>) that make use of additional
      LISP capabilities associated with this message type. Concretely, one
      single LISP message type code is dedicated to experiments; sub-types are
      used to uniquely identify a given LISP experimental message. These
      identifiers are selected by the author(s) of the corresponding LISP
      specification that introduces a new experimental message type.</t>

      <section title="LISP Packet Types">
        <t>IANA is requested to create a new protocol registry for LISP Packet
        Types, numbered 0-15. The registry must be initially populated with
        the following values:</t>

        <t><figure>
            <artwork><![CDATA[Message                           Code    Reference

LISP Map-Request                   1      [RFC6830]
LISP Map-Reply                     2      [RFC6830]
LISP Map-Register                  3      [RFC6830]

LISP Experimental Message         15   [This document]]]></artwork>
          </figure></t>

        <t>The values in the ranges 5-7 and 9-14 can be assigned via Standards
        Action <xref target="RFC5226"></xref>. Documents that request for a
        new LISP packet type may indicate a preferred value in the
        corresponding IANA sections.</t>

        <t>The value 15 is reserved for Experimental Use <xref
        target="RFC5226"></xref>.</t>
      </section>

      <section anchor="id" title="Sub-Types">
        <t>IANA is requested to create a "LISP Experimental Message Sub-types"
        registry. No initial values are assigned at the creation of the
        registry; (0-4095) are available for future assignments. </t>

        <t>Entries are assigned on a FCFS basis.</t>

        <t>The registration procedure should provide IANA with the desired
        codepoint and a point of contact. Providing a short description
        (together with an acronym, if relevant) of the foreseen usage of the
        experimental message is also encouraged.</t>
