[Simh] VMware "internal network" and VAX mop frames

[gérard Calliet]

Hello Jean-Claude,

The  MAC address of the emulated VAX machine has the value AA-00-04-... 
which will be the result of the calculated DECNET address, and it is the 
same address for the VMware NIC used.

Cordialement

Gérard Calliet
