I turned the Ethernet circuit off and set up a DMC line to 
DECnet/Python. What seems to be interesting is the Area does not seem to 
be propagating as part of the DECnet address and confusing 
DECnet/Python. [Non-Issue, just saying.]

The following four things are reported in a loop.

Event type 4.11, Initialization failure, line fault#012  From node 31.32 
(PIPY), occurred 17-Dec-2021 16:03:05.499#012  Circuit = 
DDCMP-31-42#012    Reason = Circuit synchronization lost

Event type 4.10, Circuit up#012  From node 31.32 (PIPY), occurred 
17-Dec-2021 16:03:15.473#012  Circuit = DDCMP-31-42#012 Adjacent node = 
31.42

DDCMP-31-42 packet from wrong node 42

Event type 4.18, Adjacency down#012  From node 31.32 (PIPY), occurred 
17-Dec-2021 16:03:15.494#012  Circuit = DDCMP-31-42#012    Reason = 
Adjacency address out of range#012 Adjacent node = 31.42
