The first method for binding a SNAP protocol value (which is
demonstrated below) requires the user to first bind the SNAP
SAP 0xAA, then issue a subsequent bind with class DL_HIERARCHICAL_BIND
with the 5 bytes of SNAP information.
The second method (which is not demonstrated in this program) is
to bind any supported protocol value (see section 5) and then issue
a subsequent bind with class DL_PEER_BIND. The data area of the
subsequent bind should include 6 bytes of data, the first byte being
the SNAP SAP 0xAA followed by 5 bytes of SNAP information.

Now we must complete the binding of the SNAP protocol value
