I think you tryed "cterm: and it seeems that that does not exist on this
system, On VMS ypu can do like this:

Hi Thord,
Congratulations, I can see you're up at:
[ http://akdesign.dyndns.org:8080/map/data | http://akdesign.dyndns.org:8080/map/data ]
I just tried a set host elvira and set hsot 59.53 but I'm getting "network object unknown at remote node".
Cheers, John

Hi all!
Update!
Basic connections are now working, so for a limited time you can:
set host elvira::
login as 99,99 psw: testing
Nothing much to see though.
Thanks to all for your help!

Hi!
Yes, I missed the part about the special mac-address, will test that now!
Thanks all!

If anyone else has responded to this e-mail and hasn’t received back a response from the list – it’s because the e-mail is too large.
Reply back to this message as I’ve trimmed it down.
Supratim – I went to reply back to your message below. Apparantly “LOL” translated into Swedish is still “LOL” J

Jag sa att man inte hade ARP..

Hi Thord,
You also have two GRE definitions which looks wrong.
You should have one circuit definition for PyDECnet to listen on the tap interface and another for your tunnel to Peter.
I don't know what this line is for:
circuit gre-0 GRE 192.168.12.161 <-- This is real address to host machine.
You also have two network adapters on your emulated machine - if you setup a local bridge, there is no requirement for this.
RSTS > xq > tap interface > bridge
PyDECnet > tap interface > bridge
Ethernet interface > bridge
Configure IP address on bridge
Then configure PyDECnet to listen on the tap interface and run the GRE tunnel to Peter.
You can also use pcap as you have configured below which I understand works fine. I personally use the tap interface directly with the PyDECnet patch as posted earlier.
In my case, I have tap91 going to my emulated vax (I chose this because the vax is 35.91 and I wanted to use a numbering system that reflected this).
I have tap1023 configured for PyDECnet.
In my vax.ini file I have:
; this is decnet phase iv node 35.91
set xq mac=AA-00-04-00-5B-8C
attach xq tap:tap91
and an example pydecnet.conf:
circuit tap-1023 Ethernet tap:tap1023 --random-address
circuit gre-12 GRE 11.22.33.44 --cost 5
as posted just below, the MAC address must be the correct one for your DECnet host.
The example above uses my MAC address for my 35.91 node.
There is a conversion page here that you can use:
[ http://powerdog.com/addrconv.cgi | http://powerdog.com/addrconv.cgi ]
and Peter has already done one of the calculations for you below.
cheers, Wiz!!

Um, Thord. You do know that DECnet expects very specific MAC addresses
to work, right?

Hi!
Great!
The System is Slackware 14.2 with kernel 4.10.13 running on bare iron.
(moved to another machine not to mess so much with network on main
BQ_END
machine)
BQ_BEGIN
There is traffic on the virtual interface dnettap0 (see below) but rsts
does not seem to see the py-router.
Is there some "magical" command to enable this or is it automatic?
Any ideas?
Best regards,
Thord.
The config i have now is, in simh:
----------------------------------------------
; DECnet 59.53
set xq enable
set xq type=DELQA mac=DE-18-6B-DB-21-F6
att xq tap:dnettap0
;set xqb enable
set xqb disable
set xqb type=DELQA mac=96-72-A1-2A-E7-40
----------------------------------------------
The dnettap0 virtual interface looks like this:
----------------------------------------------
$ /sbin/ifconfig dnettap0
dnettap0: flags=4163<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
