That is what I use in production. We have a floating static route bring up
the line when it has interesting traffic, (not snmp, not eigrp , etc) once
the line isup eigrp builds the neighbor relationship, and routes traffic.
Whe the primary link comes back up, eigrp dual will choose the primary path
and the backup will go down after the dialer idle-timeout expires. When
using eigrp make sure you set the bandwith on the backup interface lower
than any link in the network, as eigrp uses the minimum bandwith for it's
calculation, so if you have configured the backup for 64 K, and you have
Frame PVC's on sub inhterfaces with 32 K, it may route across the primary
and backup as equal cost and give you a large isdn phone bill.
