[Simh] [SimH] Networking support

[Cory Smelosky]

I have found sources for the BBN stacks I believe. Could not figure out how to configure it and SIMH's emulation only speaks one protocol.

While 3Mb/s "xerox" ethernet has been around for about 5 years, the DEC/Intel/Xerox Ethernet 10Mb/s spec was published Sep 30, 1980.   Per RFC 801, Arpanet was not officially schedule to switch from the old NCP to IP until Jan 1, 1983 (although a number of folks like me had been working with what would become IP/TCP for 3-4 years before that).

Or the DCEC one, which I've never heard about?  I'm very interested in bringing up TCP/IP support on historic versions of Unix.  I have both ARP and non-ARP versions of 4.1C BSD running with a backported DEUNA driver, but these would be even older than that.
