Use the ipv6 lisp map-server command to enable the Cisco NX-OS device to perform IPv6 LISP
Usage Guidelines
Map-Server (MS) functionality. A LISP Map-Server is deployed as a LISP Infrastructure component.
LISP site commands are configured on the Map Server for a LISP egress tunnel router (ETR) that
registers to it, including an authentication key, which must match the one also configured on the ETR.
A Map Server receives Map-Register control packets from ETRs. When you configure the Map Server
with a service interface to the LISP-ALT, it injects aggregates for the registered EID prefixes into the
LISP-ALT.
The Map-Server also receives Map-Request control packets from the LISP-ALT, which it then forwards
as a LISP Encapsulated Control Message (ECM) to the registered ETR that is authoritative for the EID
prefix being queried. The ETR returns a Map-Reply message directly back to the ITR.
When deploying a LISP Map-Resolver, follow these guidelines:

Modification
This command was introduced.
When a Map-Resolver is configured to use the LISP ALT for endpoint identifier to Routing Locator
(EID-to-RLOC) mapping resolution, the Map-Resolver configuration must include the ipv6 alt-vrf
command.
When a Map-Resolver is configured concurrently with a Map-Server as a stand-alone system (when
it is not connected to any ALT and it has full knowledge of the LISP mapping system for a private
LISP deployment), using the ipv6 alt-vrf command is not required.
