Not a noun.
It's only 〜する when used with と. We don't use vs in such cases.

  Comments:
What was there was quite in accord with the references. Daijirin shows it's a と/たる, so changing the gloss to the する form is not appropriate. The GG5 examples are:
彼は黙々として語らなかった. He remained mute and silent.
彼女は皿の上にうつむいて黙々と食べた. She bowed her head over her plate and ate in silence.
The xref to 黙然  is because they are similar and related.
