- Octet 2: |
|
bits 8-5 |
lower DLCI: Data Link Connection Identifier |
bit 4 |
FECN: forward explicit congestion notification |
bit 3 |
BECN: backward explicit congestion notification |
bit 2 |
DE: discard eligibility indicator |

The encoding values of the five M bits included in the first octet of the
control field can also be listed and ordered according to their hexadecimal
code.
