Security Considerations

LISP southbound plugin follows LISP RFC6830 security guidelines. A key/password is associated with every EID prefix which is used to create a MAC (Message Authentication Code) of the UDP LISP control messages for authentication and integrity protection of the UDP messages. This is implemented as specified in the LISP RFC6830. These keys can be defined through the northbound APIs.
