You could net-boot an 11/23+ over various flavors of sync serial boards.
The problem is that most people don't have the sync modem eliminators, etc.,

Hmm, you said XXDP in the title, then you ask
about VAX in the body.
But no, I don't know of any net-bootable diagnostics for -11's or VAXen.
:-) You know what I meant though. Basically a test harness that contains
lots of tests for various subsystems in a VAX. You raise another
interesting question which is, "Was there no way to boot an -11 over the
networK?" I suspect the answer to that is no, there was no way. Too bad DEC
didn't build a NMSCP that could be implemented on a network board.
