	 SUBJECT:  QUESTION CONCERNING RFC950

         RFC950 specifies two new ICMP message types, Address Mask Request
         and Address Mask Reply.  They are used to find the address mask
         for a given subnet.  They specify the types, AM1 to represent
         an address mask request message and AM2 to represent an address
         mask reply message.

         Question:  What numerical values are associated with AM1 and AM2 for
                    the type field in an ICMP header?

         Within RFC792-Internet Control Message Protocol, there is a list of
         message types used by ICMP, none of which reflect the type field
         representation of AM1 or AM2.
