I have pydecnet running on raspberry pi 3b+
under raspbian with the bridge and tap support added. It does the job.

Linux or Mac, including at least one example on Linux on a z/390, and another on
Beaglebone Black. But the point of the exercise was to create code that would run,
unchanged, on anything that supports Python. For example, while I avoid Windows if at all
possible, it certainly should run there without trouble. Or NetBSD, to pick just one
other random example.
It does work well enough that I was able use it to verify Phase II support. I plan to
add intercept support for talking to non-adjacent nodes, but that isn't in yet. A
primitive version is easy, a proper version is quite a lot harder.

Dropped VMS or dropped VAX? There was a Python for AXP (although I don't know if
it's still supported) but I don't think there was for VAX.
How do people who use your router typically run it? Do they run it on Linux? Paul Koning [paulkoning at comcast.net] wrote:
There was, but I think Python recently dropped VMS support due to lack of a maintainer.
TOPS-10
is Phase IV, right? Any of the common DECnet implementations should talk to that.
TOPS-10 v7.04 (or maybe 7.05) is Phase IV. That's good news - I've wanted to set
up a TOPS-10 simulation, but running a simh780 just to route DECnet for the DMR on TOPS-10
was not attractive.
I'd rather have TOPS-20 but as you say TOPS-20 on simh with networking is not very
practical.
