It seems like a very simple matter to simulate it as a basic character device, separate
from the KMC pairing. The only real question is how you represent a sync data stream in a
simullated device. Is it just the byte stream over a TCP connection? That would be easy
for synchronous character mode. If you also want to simulate HDLC sync devices,
that's a different matter entirely; there isn't an obvious way to do that.
In other words, if someone wants this, just design how it communicates and do the code, it
doesn't sound hard.

No, the Dup is only simulated as Kdp/Dup combo, hence the Ddcmp characteristics of the

Fair enough.
But DUP11 is a sync character based interface. So that one too requires that you do DDCMP
in software. But I didn't think simh simulated a DUP11?
