[OOR-Users] [LISPmob-users] LISPMob-0.5.0

Hi Musab,

Nice to have here again :-)

According to the RFC, when we send a map request probe, the source EID 
afi is set to 0 (no AFI specified):

    Source EID Address:  This is the EID of the source host that
       originated the packet that caused the Map-Request.  When
       Map-Requests are used for refreshing a Map-Cache entry or for
       RLOC-Probing, an AFI value 0 is used and this field is of zero
       length.

Anyway, we have not yet fixed the bug you found some time ago as the 
implementation of LISPmob PxTR was just a prove of concept. 
Unfortunately OOR has not yet implemented PxTR but you can still use the 
LISPmob PxTR implementation if you disable RLOC probing in both sides.

Best regards

Albert
