I am working with Supratim on this to achieve the connection he describes.
If I can be of any assistance regarding the setup on my end let me know.
Thanks everyone for your support and responses.

Yes, sorry, I should have described what I am trying to achieve. Basically
a few virtual nodes talking DECnet, AppleTalk and NetBIOS/NetBEUI protocols
(no IP), plugged into some virtual switch or router that can setup a GRE
tunnel to a real CISCO switch on the other end, which also has DECnet and
AppleTalk nodes on it.
I came across this just now based on the pointers received so far and will
research this: http://brezular.com/2015/09/29/gre-tunnel-between-cisco-
and-linux/
Thanks for the information; keep it coming!

Ooops, I'm sorry, I missed the word "switch" in the OP's message.
Thank you for the clarification.

Dynamips doesn?t emulate Cisco switches; be

Routers with switch modules and a basic switch implementation exists,
however.
You could in theory also tie to VDR
