There are no
device drivers included with RT11 for anything that I
recognize as a synchronous interface, so I would assume it only supported a
standard asynchronous serial port.
That don't necessarily mean much. With RSX, DECnet has its own device drivers.
I should have remembered that. No idea if that applies to RT-11. RSTS is different: it
uses the standard device drivers, but with some additional I/O request function codes.
DMC use direct by applications was always supported. I'm not sure if application use
of Ethernet was supported, or whether it works (and if not, how hard that would be to
fix).
