Introduction

A user needs to access a router using DEC's Maintenance Operation Protocol (MOP). Currently, the user can only access the router with the Network Control Protocol (NCP) command connect via bna-0 physical-add <router-address> . Using connect mode with the router's DECnet address fails, even with the router's DECnet address in the NCP table.
