The one limitation is that it is usually problematic to have the same
machine that is running the bridge also participate as a DECnet node
on the same interface. Because then you need to see all your own
outgoing packets. Not all hardware will do that for you.

So, if you try to run in one machine,
with hardware that can't see its own packets,
then you need 3 interfaces,
1: To talk TCP/IP / UDP for main interface plus UDP side of bridge
2: DECnet side of bridge
3: DECnet speaking software

or

a machine with only one interface running the bridge program, and
a machine with two interfaces, one for TCP/IP/UDP and one DECnet.

Or have I still misunderstood?
