 Hello folks,
 
 little supplementum on that issue. It has been resolved. The problem
 seems to be a config issue:
 
 In the /etc/ifconfig.de0 the line
 
 "10.0.0.90 netmask 255.255.255.0 media autoselect"
 
 is no longer valid. The suffix "media autoselect" needs to be removed
 since NetBSD-10. So no break in the network stack, but a break in the
 POLA directive for the end user for thier configs might be expected
 with NetBSD-10 on VAX. With other ports such as amd64, i386,
 evbarm-earm6hf or arm64 I can report that the behaviour there did not
 change from NetBSD-9 to 10. So if one might address this issue for the
 VAX port, it would be warmly welcomed.
 
 Therefore I consider this bug report solved and closed. Thank you all
 for your feedback.
 Keep up that good work!
 
 - Marc.

 Hello Jonathan,
 
 many thanks for your quick reply!
 
 
 All of those MAC or IPv6 addresses in the presented logs were masked
 by me for privacy reasons, if that is it, what you mean. The emulated
 hardware MAC is recognised by the OS/drivers as it should be as it did
 with NetBSD 9 before. Thus were the IPv6 addresses calculated ind
 given accordingly. Even the site-local 'fd00:....' and global
 '2003:...' addresses could be obtained somehow.
 However: now neither IPv6 traffic is possible through that device,
 even if being able automatically set appropriate IPv6 addresses to
 that port. Nor is it even possible to set the preset IPv4 address to
 the network device "de0" at boot. Should I do so manually with
 "ifconfig 10.0.0.90 255.255.255.0" after logon, ifconfig set it so as
 requested, but no traffic will be transmitted through the port.
 Neither IPv6, nor IPv4. Not even pings.
 
 What I miss in checking the ethernet port with a simple "ifconfig"
 command within the emulated/guest NetBSD-10 machine are some lines in
 ifconfig's output such as the following that I have for my NetBSD 9
 host machine, where the emulated port is connected to and which works
 fine as desired. That could be a hint:
 
 "
     media: Ethernet autoselect (1000baseT full-duplex)
     status: active
 
 "
 
 
 Neither of those are present since the change from NetBSD 9.3 to
 NetBSD 10RC5 of the guest.  It seems to be, that the driver is unable
 to determin the used medium and thus does not recognize the medium as
 "active.
 
 â?? Marc.

 It looks like you have a layer 2 multicast address in place of a layer
 2 unicast
 MAC address.  Can you try again with say fe:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
 instead?  Or
 is this real hardware?

 &nbsp;&nbsp;being able automatically set appropriate IPv6 addresses to that=
  port. Nor =3D<br>
  is it even possible to set the preset IPv4 address to the network device "=

  e0" at boot. Should I do so manually with "ifconfig 10.0.0.90 255.255.255.=
 0=3D<br>
  " after logon, ifconfig set it so as requested, but no traffic will be tra=

  &gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;What I miss in checking the ethernet =

  =3D<br>
  in ifconfig's output such as the following that I have for my NetBSD 9 hos=

 &nbsp;&nbsp;machine, where the emulated port is connected to and which work=

  esired. That could be a hint:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;style&gt;&lt;/styl=

  tyle&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Neither of those are present since the chan=
