No I meant at the SIMH level - sort of like the serial mux on the VAX inbound
and maybe a “modem emulator” port outbound, like in DOSbox (you can basically
“dial” a telnet connection a la “ATDT foo.example.com:1234”)
I know this code isn’t in there but how hard would it be to add something like
this from the main SIMH codebase?
Ok. I did touch upon that option. I do not expect it to be hard from the
simh perspective, but unless the OS that is running on the Pro is using
the serial ports this way, it will not do you much good.
Outgoing serial ports might be easier, in that that was definitely
supported. However, logging in to the machine over a serial port still
depends on the question if the OS on the Pro allowed that.

The Pro emulator? It gives you the Pro graphic subsystem. P/OS includes
emulating a VT220 with some limitations. And you have DECnet...
However, no telnet. Neither in, nor out. You could possibly emulate the serial
ports of the Pro, and connect them to some telnet server, like other Simh
emulations. However, if that would be useful depends on whether any software on
the Pro would allow the usage of the serial ports in that way to log in.
I think P/OS could support users logging in on the serial ports, but I'm not
entirely sure. Other operating systems I have no idea...
And before anyone asks, no, my TCP/IP will not run under P/OS. It's because
P/OS do not support split I/D space, even when you had hardware that could do
it.

Is there any way of turning this into a terminal via say some kind of

Does the software bundle include a terminal emulator?
I’d totally use this for connecting to VMS systems etc..
