Technical Summary
The currently defined PIM version 2 messages share a common message
header format. The common header definition contains eight reserved
bits. This document specifies how these bits may be used by
individual message types, and creates a registry containing the per
message type usage. This document also extends the PIM type space by
defining three new message types.
