We need TCP/IP for TENEX. Maybe it's already there, I haven't checked.

TCP/IP IMPLEMENTATIONS AND VENDORS GUIDE, 1985:

SRI has implemented TCP/IP for the TENEX (FOONEX and AUGUST) operating system running on DEC-10 KA or KI and F2, F3 or F4 Foonly processors. It was adapted from the BBN and ISI versions of TENEX TCP/IP, with contributions from Ed Taft of Xerox and Phil French of Tymshare, and resides in the operating system. It is largely upward-compatible with TOPS-20 implementations and fully compatible with AUGMENT. Telnet, FTP, SMTP, ICMP, ECHO, TIME, WHOIS, and NAME service are available although some are still under development.

This is an implementation done at BBN. DARPA has dropped funding for continued support for Tenex development, and thus the latest versions done for BBN and DEC for TOPS-20 are not available for Tenex.

TCP4 and IP4 are available for use with the TENEX operating system running on a Digital KA10 processor with BBN pager. TCP4 and IP4 are also available as part of TOPS20 Release 3A and Release 4 for the Digital KL10 and KL20 processors.
