Some of his work seems to be still online at 
https://www.pdc.kth.se/~bygg/tops/

Here is what he wrote in October of 2018 (I saved the email in a text file):

"Since there really is a need for a tool to examine various kinds of DEC
protocol traffic, I am trying to put one together.  In case anyone is
interested:

Don't let the ANF part of the name fool you!  It can do the following:

   *  listen for ethernet frames with ANF-10, DECnet and LAT.

   *  listen for DDCMP (simh-style over TCP or UDP), with decoding
      of payload (ANF-10 or DECnet).

   *  listen for Multinet over TCP, with decoding of DECnet.

   *  do several of the above, in parallel, if you want to see how
      a box in the middle molests your data.

   *  read (and write) pcap-format files.

As usual this is a work-in-progress, and some things (like the manual)
are missing, but the code mostly works.  Use the -h flag for help at
this time.
