You mentioned that some of this is real hardware and some is simulated.  It 
might be helpful to post a map showing the setup, including interface models, 
link speeds, and switch models.

Are the interface speeds all the same?  LAVC was built for 10 Mbps Ethernet, 
and while running it faster should be ok, running mixed speeds may create more 
congestion than the protocol is comfortable with.  While any Ethernet protocol 
has to handle packet loss, some protocols assume packet loss is rare.  DECnet 
wouldn't, but the cluster protocols (and LAT, for that matter) do.  

Is there any way to show packet loss counts?  Can you run DECnet, and if you 
put a significant load on DECnet connections, do the DECnet counters show any 
errors?
