If there are more that are willing to act as connection points,
and have acceptable network connectivity, and is owning an area,
feel free to let me know, and I'll add you to my list.

closest may not be the best answer -- closest to the rest of the
net is also interesting -- but both of those should be visible
on the map. You can turn off Level 1 nodes and links to see the
area routing backbone only, that's probably the best resource to
answer your question.

Yeah, I'm ready to fire up PyDECnet in preparation of getting
a couple simh instances going. Who'd going to be my closest

For the others, Paul pretty much summed it up. In
addition, it should probably be mentioned that
Multinet over TCP or UDP is possible inside VMS and
RSX (as well as with PyDECnet). DDCMP over TCP or UDP
is possible with PyDECnet (actually, I could probably
add that in RSX as well), while GRE is mainly for
Cisco, but I think PyDECnet also can do that one?
<br>
<br>
So choices are somewhat dependent on what
system/software you are using.

Yes, PyDECnet supports: real Ethernet, Ethernet bridging
over UDP, GRE, Multinet over TCP (and UDP but don't),
DDCMP over TCP, UDP, simulated async connections
including Telnet, real async connections, and sync
connections via my DDCMP framer device. In other words,
most of the datalinks DECnet has ever supported.
Missing are 802.5 token ring, HDLC, X.25, and PCL, I
think that's about it. Some day I'll think about 802.5
support not so much for that but because it would enable
DECnet over WiFi.

I was intending on running PyDECnet. I'm in southern
Portugal. Not sure who's closest to me.
