everything was working fine before I made it a backup int, pings worked. when I
made it a backup int it went into standby mode and I used a backup delay
statement. I'm really stumped on this one because before I made it a backup int
it worked fine so I know that there is nothing wrong with the ISDN config and y
ou
can't really mess up a backup int config.(unless you put it on the wrong int
;-) ) I tried it using both dialer maps and dialer profiles and had a problem
with both of them.
