We recently encountered this TCP/IP on VAX/VMS problem.  There are three
reasonable approaches:  1. Try the FREE "Tektroinix" software that Kevin
at Hughes (KVC) has significantly improved. 2. Spend $35k for the 
Wollongong software, or 3. Check into the Compion (Gould) package.  
Number 1 is the most cost effective but Kevin will have to give a VMS 4.0
Status Report.  Wollonggong seems to work fine but you get a lot of
other UNIX stuff for your money.  I just contacted Interlan and the 
Ethernet TCP/IP board scheduled for Q1/1985 is now Q3/1985.  It is a
great solution if you have time to wait.  I personally would not count
on DEC for this one, they seem to be confused about what they are doing.
