ip lisp shortest-eid-prefix-length

To configure the shortest IPv4 endpoint identifier (EID)-prefix mask-length that is acceptable to an
ingress tunnel router (ITR) or Proxy ITR (PITR) in a received Map-Reply message or to an ETR in the
mapping-data record of a received Map-Request, use the ip lisp shortest-eid-prefix-length command.
To return to the default configuration, use the no form of this command.

When an ITR or PITR receives a Map-Reply message, the mapping data it contains includes the EID
Usage Guidelines
mask-length for the returned EID prefix. By default, the shortest EID prefix mask length accepted by an
ITR or PITR for an IPv4 EID prefix is a /16. You can use the ip lisp shortest-eid-prefix-length
command to change this default. For example, it may be necessary for a PITR to accept a shorter
(coarser) prefix if one exists.
When an ETR receives a Map-Request message, it might contain a mapping data record that the ETR
can cache and possible use to forward traffic depending on the configuration of the ip lisp etr
accept-map-request-mapping command. Use the ip lisp shortest-eid-prefix-length command to
change the shortest prefix length accepted by the ETR. In this case, the check for the shortest EID-prefix
mask length is done prior to the verifying Map-Request, if also configured. That is, if the EID-prefix
mask length is less than the configured value, the verifying Map-Request is not sent and the mapping
data is not accepted.
This command does not require a license.
