I earned the name "Queen Isis, Supreme Goddess of the Universe", which is sometimes shortened to "Queen Isis". I refer to my Mommy as the "Queen Mother".
I've been told that I make a good scarf, so I guess that's another name. I like to walk around on Mommy's shoulders.
The other cats have stopped calling me "SnotNose." When Trepak got a really bad cold in September, 2001, I gave him a taste of his own medicine and called HIM "SnotNose".; He wasn't amused. That's when they stopped using that nickname because it was getting confusing.
I have my very own nsap address. I've also redefined some basic isis commands for those who don't know the protocol too well.
For more information about the actual routing protocol, check out the NANOG overview at http://www.nanog.org/mtg-0010/ppt/martey and read RFC 1142.
Global Commands | Meaning |
---|---|
router isis | This gets me on the router! |
no passive-interface | I am the only implementation of isis that does not have a passive interface! |
net 49.0001.0101.6005.9180.00 | This is my nsap address. The area ID starting with 49 is for local use within a network domain. The area ID is 49.0001. The system ID is the IP address embedded in groups of 4 digits instead of the normally viewed groups of 3. SystemID = 0101.6005.9180. (The 180 in the IP address comes from the fact that I joined the household on the 180th day of the year.) The last 2 digits is the Nsel, which is 00 for a router because I bat packets around like a router! Because this is a local address, I did not need to get into a really long CLNS address to ensure a globally unique nsap. For more information about NSAP format, check out some of the NANOG pages. This slide show is a good place to start. |
is-type level-1 | I'm ALWAYS number one! |
spf-interval 45 | This runs the Dijkstra shortest path first algorithm every 45 seconds. What that means is that every 45 seconds, I look for changes in the room and recalculate the shortest path to my favorite toy, to the nearest cat to play with, or to my food, depending on the time of day. |
Interface Commands | Meaning |
interface Ethernet0
ip router isis | That puts me on a specific interface |
isis circuit-type level-1 | I'm number one locally and globally! |
isis hello-multiplier 3 level-1 | This is the number of times I circle around someone's legs to say "hello" |
isis hello-interval 30 level-1 | This is the amount of time that I wait between my hello sessions. After I say hello, I wait 30 seconds, then try again. |
isis retransmit-interval 150 | This is how long I wait between requests for attention or food. |
isis misbehave-interval 500 | I had to extend the protocol to cover this contingency. This is a last-resort to get attention when the hello-interval and retransmit-interval activity fails to get me what I want. This is when I try to eat the plants or claw something I'm not supposed to touch. |
The background is a washed out picture of my fur.
