Sortof yes, but no.
The errors are because RSX is receiving packets without that multinet
header.
What I meant with the above was this:
.mnc set cir ip-0-3 mode ddcmp
MODE have been deprecated.
Please update any configuration scripts.

You should have gotten those errors in RSX when doing the command. But
yes, also, the fact that you set your PyDECnet side to talk DDCMP caused
the errors when receiving packets.
Hm. The command "MNC SET CIR IP-0-5 MODE
DDCMP" should have given a
warning that this has been deprecated. In essence, it does nothing.
All links are just multinet links, which is DDCMP, with a small header
to just get whole packets when using TCP.

That explains the "MLTNET" in Marks error log. So, if I set up the
phDECnet circuit as a Multinet one is should work? On 02/03/2026

Because that's what I was told needed to be done to connect to other
HECnet nodes? Mark has several set up that way and so does Supratim.
