RFC 4944 defines the ESC dispatch type to allow additional dispatch
octets in the 6LoWPAN header.  The value of the ESC dispatch type was
updated by RFC 6282; however, its usage was not defined in either RFC
6282 or RFC 4944.  This document updates RFC 4944 and RFC 6282 by
defining the ESC extension octet code points and listing registration
entries for known use cases at the time of writing of this document.

This document is a product of the IPv6 over Networks of Resource-constrained Nodes Working Group of the IETF.

This is now a Proposed Standard.

STANDARDS TRACK: This document specifies an Internet Standards Track
protocol for the Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions
for improvements.  Please refer to the current edition of the Official
Internet Protocol Standards (https://www.rfc-editor.org/standards) for the 
standardization state and status of this protocol.  Distribution of this 
memo is unlimited.
