I don't believe we should have a non PubSub option. Its what we have now to 
update xTRs map-caches. Its slow and we can do better. Since we have PubSub in 
a mature state, we should have this design depend on it fully.

PJ>>> As per current draft, both options are available, however we are open to 
discuss and conclude it either way for the best solution. Would like to hear if 
any other opinion on this.

EIDs not registered are not non-EIDs. Destinations that are unknown are 
non-EIDs. Your parantetical comment is misleading. 

PJ>>> Ok, will clarify. Parenthetical comment is the text from the draft for 
the EIDs not registered to the mapping system which can be encapsulated to 
pETRs (implementation can still choose what to encapsulate at ITR), its not the 
definition of 'non-EIDs'.


What we agreed on was this:


(1) Define an EID-block. Destinations that match this block are map-requested.
(2) Destinations not in an EID-block are non-EIDs and are encapsulated to the 
pETR.


PJ>>> Correct.

Thanks,
Prakash
