Well, not if you have been running Multinet.

And now with today's new TCPIP stack announcement, VSI OpenVMS
just made a major jump forward into the current world.

extract from announcement link: 
"Some of the major updates include: OpenSSL 1.0.2, SSH (V1 & V2),
DHCP v3, IPv6 (complete application protocols supported), IPSEC
(full support), Bind 9.9, Kerberos 5, and advanced features such
as IPS, paired network interface support, and improved
performance monitoring capabilities."
