How loud is the 7720?

No this is correct. What kind of hardware and os?
Is it on-line at Hecnet?
FreeBSD. XQB is attached to a tap0 device that is created by OpenVPN that
is bridged with my home network.
No. It is not currently on HECnet. It's going to become my area router.
[Rob Jarratt]
If you just need an area router, have you considered trying the user mode
router I wrote recently? It runs on Windows and on Raspberry Pi (Debian).
You will have to build it and it might need a tweak or two to run on
FreeBSD.
It doesn't need two NICs either, although your environment sounds a bit
different to anything I have tested so far.
Can it take packets from say: tap0 and route them out via a link on em0?
But you can just install another copy of multinet in a different
directory for each node and configure them separately.
Nonsense. Files in MULTINET_SPECIFIC_ROOT take
precedence over files in MULTINET_COMMON_ROOT.
I used to keep common clean, rename specific file to
common, configure it and renamed it back to specific.

Hi,
I looked into this a few years back and never found a solution. But you can just install another copy of multinet in a different directory for each node and configure them separately.

I have a cluster with 3 nodes that have multinet on them.
Due to the stupidity of my router's forwarding rules, I need telnet to run on a different port on each of them, so eg:
NODE1 port 2301
NODE2 port 2302
NODE3 port 2303
Is this possible?
How do I configure this?

LAN segment, of course. IF the VMS node is a router, it'll happily route
DECnet traffic between the two interfaces and their associated networks.
I'm doing it now - LEGATO is configured this way.
I'm starting to think the problem lies with simh interfacing with FreeBSD's netstack/some odd OpenVPN stuff.
I fixed it. Turns out the problem resulted from accidentally becoming the router for someone else's network.
And now it's broken again.
(Feel free to ask how the hell I managed that)

Please tell. :-)
I was using OpenVPN's layer 2 bridging at my house. I have my VPS and a friend's windows server connected to it. I set up a bridge on his windows server and my DHCP server was advertising to clients on his network. I had simh instances running on that server that may've been using the default simh MAC which would explain the conflicts.
When I break networks I do so spectacularly.

And I'd like to point out that what you describe is not briding... :-)
Yes, VMS can route packets. Yes, all ethernet interfaces under DECnet
phase IV will have the same MAC address. No, VMS have no idea of the
concept of a bridge. And if you bridge two ethernet segments together,
and VMS sits on both those segments, bad juju happens.
To clarify, before someone complains: all ethernet interfaces *on the same machine* will have the same MAC address.
