You don't want to do this.  Where are you getting a VDH IMP anyway?
Everybody has pretty much dropped this as being too cumbersome and
none of the current BBN IMP software supports the interface.  Every
thing else has either been cut over to HDH or is using local or distant
host on ECUs.  The new X.25 hac is another solution.
