If ... No, done that enough for one email.
If you can get three KA820s (or KA825s)
you should be able to get that to work too!
(But you cannot mix KA820 & KA825).

The Owner's Manual is available at:
http://208.190.133.201/decimages/moremanuals.htm
as is the Installation Guide.
I *thought* I'd also scanned and sent an
install guide for one of the VAXBI ethernet
options, but I guess not.
When I had one in the lab, my VAX 8350
just mostly worked so I don't have too much
experience of playing with the ethernet.
The DSB32 and DMB32, and the CPU(s)
and memory were all pretty straightforward.
The only funny I remember with ethernet is
that you need to cable up a little bit extra
for the power required by the AUI in
the bulkhead. But that may well have been
the VAX 6000 ...
