'Twas the Night Before Start-up


STATUS OF THIS

This memo discusses problems that arise and debugging techniques
in bringing a new network into operation. Distribution of this
is unlimited



Twas the night before start-up and all through the net
not a packet was moving; no bit nor octet
The engineers rattled their cards in despair
hoping a bad chip would blow with a flare
The salesmen were nestled all snug in their beds
while visions of data nets danced in their heads
And I with my datascope tracings and
prepared for some pretty bad bruises and lumps
When out in the hall there arose such a clatter
I sprang from my desk to see what was the matter

There stood at the threshold with PC in tow
An ARPANET hacker, all ready to go
I could see from the creases that covered his brow
he'd conquer the crisis confronting him now
More rapid than eagles, he checked each
and scrutinized each for its potential harm

On LAPB, on OSI, X.25!
TCP, SNA, V.35!

His eyes were afire with the strength of his gaze
no bug could hide long; not for hours or days
A wink of his eye and a twitch of his head
soon gave me to know I had little to dread
He spoke not a word, but went straight to his work
fixing a net that had gone plumb berserk
And laying a finger on one suspect line
he entered a patch and the net came up fine

The packets flowed neatly and protocols matched
the hosts interfaced and shift-registers latched
He tested the system from Gateway to PAD
not one bit was dropped; no checksum was bad
At last he was finished and wearily

RFC 968 December 1985
Twas the Night Before Start-


and turned to explain why the system had died
I twisted my fingers and counted to ten
an off-by-one index had done it again...

if you see any problems within the linking, don't worry be happy,
this is version 0.1 of the Relevance System and you gotta expect some crappy subroutines sometimes,
just be content we did not write this in Java, which would have made this "bigger and better" HAHAHHA.
