Zhen,
Here's my understanding:
'dialer remote-name policy-1' doesn't matter on HEADQUARTERS
because it's the CALLING router. It needs a dialer
remote-name, and it has to be different from the 'dialer
remote-name SATELLITE-1' used by Dialer0. So it's
essentially just a placeholder; notice that 'policy-1'
doesn't show up anywhere else in the two configs on pp.
188-189.
If another router were to call the HEADQUARTERS router using
this dialer interface, it would be expecting the calling
router to have either it's router name or it's ppp chap
hostname to be policy-1. But no one else is configured to
call this router, so this dialer remote-name isn't ever
really used.
HTH,
Scott
