"Do you want to configure static lines?"

    If you want to establish a static asynchronous connection, answer
    YES. A static asynchronous connection creates a permanent DECnet
    link to a single remote node. Two nodes are connected by either
    a dialup line or by a physical line attached to a terminal port
    at each end. Before the DECnet connection is made, the terminal
    lines must be converted to static asynchronous DDCMP lines.
