As noted earlier here in c.o.v., Multinet does support DECnet PH
V over IP.

Not sure if this is what you were looking for, but here is a
Multinet link:
http://www.process.com/docs/multinet5_4/ADMIN_REFERENCE/Ch01.htm#
E55E58
"MULTINET SET /ROUTE
Specifies static IP routing, including the default route. This
command is invoked automatically by the network startup command
file generated by the Network Configuration Utility (NET-CONFIG).
Before making changes with SET /ROUTE, use MULTINET SHOW /ROUTE
to view the routing information."
(see qualifiers)
