Technical Summary

   The 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
   extends the PIM type space.

   This document updates RFC7761 and RFC3973 by defining the use of the
   currently Reserved field in the PIM common header.  This document
   further updates RFC7761 and RFC3973, along with RFC5015, RFC5059,
   RFC6754, and RFC8364, by specifying the use of the currently reserved
   bits for each PIM message.

   This document obsoletes RFC8736.

Working Group Summary

   The purpose of this document is to fix a bug in RFC 8736 that is holding up other drafts. 
   WG consensus was reached and no issues highlighted.

Personnel
