I wonder too. The DEC standard answer would be an
"NCP loop node foo" command, which is an application protocol but a simple one
(mirror, object 25).
The ping command that he illustrated is from IOS on a Cisco router.
Ok, then it's anyone's guess what it does; Cisco doesn't really understand
DECnet or know how to read the specs. It would be informative to capture a packet trace
showing what was sent and received.
