Perhaps we could compare dumps of various monitor.exes.
The command procedure actually opens up three more classes:
VMS1, VMS2, and VMS3; their output follows for interested readers;
but unfortunately on my system no items seem to be reserved :)

Nice! That command procedure's comments say that it only works on
specific releases of VAX/VMS, namely 5.0, 5.1, 5.2, 5.4-2, 5.5, 6.0, and
6.1. Does anyone know if it works on (say) 7.3 as well? I'm guessing
no, due to the nature of the version-specific changes.

The addresses of the structures changed for each version or so of VMS...you'd need to locate them with the fiche, or reading a dump of the image, or , for older versions of VMS, just using the Google to find one for your version. I enclosed that one just as an example of what gets patched.
Lessee....I also recall that MON ETHERNET required PHY_IO privilege, and needed a logical name NI$DEVICE set to be your network adapter's name to work.
