Hi.

R1 ---serial link ----- R2

R1/R2 are provided with ISDN Dial Backup.

Backup Interface Command

----
If I get a scenario to provide backup from R1-->R2  and from
R2--->R1 , shall I use  "backup interface bri0" in the serial
interfaces of both Routers ?  infact putting the backup interface
command at only side is also sufficient. And I tried putting it
on both the sides that also work.  Kindly advise.
Floating Static Routes
----------------
If I want to use floating static routes to provide DIAL Backup to
Serial link,  Can I still use the same SUBNET on BRI interfaces
as Serial Interfaces?  I tried it and I am getting 50% of ping
success rate. I believe this is due to the fact that  BACKUP interface
command puts the BRI interface in standby mode where as
if I use static routes still the interface will remain UP
Please advise
TIA
KHURRAM KHANI.
