LISP does not require your physical ISP to support LISP in order to receive=
 service.  It is available in open source as well as low end CPE routers, i=
n addition to larger, more expensive (and capable) routers sold by various =
vendors.

I don't know what you mean by universal, so I can't really respond to that.=
  However, if you'd like a list of LISP service providers to provide you th=
e benefits of multi-homing in a non BGP environment, or to deliver IPv6 pac=
kets over an IPv4 intent connection, please contact me off line.
