TCP/IP

Currently, networking is only supported under the KLH10 and SIMH KA10 and KL10 emulators. The SIMH KS10 does not have the necessary support. As of this release, only the ITS monitor, host table tools, and binary host table are installed.

Currently, basic TCP network support is in the build, in addition to both a TELNET/SUPDUP server, and both TELNET and SUPDUP clients. Additionally, both an FTP server and client are included. SMTP mail inbound and outbound is included, as well as local mail delivery.

IP address

To change the machine's IP address you need to rebuild ITS.

SIMH KA10 / KL10

To get the pdp10-ka or pdp10-kl online with the lowest effort, use the included NAT interface via DHCP. This will assign ITS the ip 10.0.2.15, set up routing automatically, and forward the ports you specify. Edit build/pdp10-ka/run and configure the IMP interface as follows:

# IMP Network Interface
set imp mac=xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx
set imp dhcp
at imp nat:tcp=2123:10.0.2.15:23,tcp=2121:10.0.2.15:21,tcp=2195:10.0.2.15:95

This example adds port forwarding for telnet, ftp, and supdup. Modify according to your needs.

SIMH KS10

The simh (KS) simulator does not currently support networking.

KLH10

The KLH10 dskdmp.ini file has an IP address (192.168.1.100) and gateway IP address (192.168.0.45) configured for the ITS system. The IP address matches the address configured in SYSTEM; CONFIG > (as IMPUS3). Finally, the HOST table source (SYSHST; H3TEXT >) and binary (SYSBIN; HOSTS3 >) defined a host called DB-ITS.EXAMPLE.COM at the IP address 192.168.1.100.

In order to change the IP address of the host, you can edit IP, GW, and NETMASK in the file conf/network. You can also set a Chaosnet address. After that, a full rebuild (e.g. make clean all) is required.

telnet, supdup, ftp

They work out of the box

Chaosnet

Chaosnet TELNET and FTP (CHTN and CFTP), are available but this requires support and configuration in the emulator to actually use.
