Try telnet .255.255  

I found a connection established as follows (telnet from Sun to ethernet):

SUN 4.0 SUNOS
tcp        0      0  doc.1101               128.165.255.255.telnet ESTABLISHED

VAX 4.3BSD
tcp        0     78  128.165.255.255.telnet doc.1101               ESTABLISHED

Is this predictable?

The connection is stable.
