It might be but it should not be. The DECnet architecture specifies precisely what the

Start with "active nodes": that means every node known to be reachable.
Given that, "known nodes" is defined as the union of active nodes and named
nodes. So a nameless node is known if it is shown as reachable by routing data (or by
having an active adjacency), but not otherwise.

Johnny - if I remember right, I have seen nodes
with no names show up at http://mim.update.uu.se/hecnet without names in brackets, for my
nodes when I haven?t told you to add them yet, or others too. no?
"Known nodes" is a tricky thing. It might also be different for different OSes.
