If so, the list would be SA (class 3) and vendor range 2 (0x30-0x4f).
Correct ?

I'm not sure that letting a user take over a management class that doesn't usually support RMPP would necessarily be dangerous; it just may not work for the user. For the most part, the RMPP relies on the registration request to determine when to invoke RMPP.


The exception to this is that the code needs to calculate the offset of the user data separate from the common MAD headers. This is done in the data_offset() function in mad_rmpp.c.

The classes that you mention above are the only classes that I know of that have RMPP defined.
