 Use the CONNECT VIA command to set up a logical connection between
 the host node and the console interface on a target node using the
 specified circuit.  If the DECnet node address of the target node is
 not known, use the CONNECT VIA command instead of the CONNECT NODE
 command. Both the host node and the target node must be on the same
 broadcast circuit.
