Explanation

LISP Configuration Prerequisites Explained

Before configuring LISP (Locator/ID Separation Protocol), two key prerequisites must be met: you must determine the type of LISP deployment (such as LISP for IPv4, IPv6, or mobility scenarios), as different deployment types require different configuration approaches; and the datak9 license is specifically required on Cisco IOS platforms to enable LISP functionality. Option B is incorrect because blindly deploying LISP without planning the deployment type leads to misconfiguration and wasted effort - proper planning is always a prerequisite. Option D is wrong because LISP does not require the "advanced IP services" license; that license is associated with other routing features, and confusing it with datak9 is a common trap on exams.

Memory Tip: Think "Plan + License = LISP Launch" - you need a Plan (deployment type) and the correct License (datak9) before you can successfully launch a LISP deployment. If you remember that LISP is a data plane technology, you can associate it with the datak9 license naturally.
