Armand,

        Don't put interesting traffic on the remote side. Assuming this
is only a point-to-point dial scenario, and the local side is in backup,
there will never be a case where the remote side should be dialing at
all.

Also, "debug dialer packet" will give you more detailed information
about what traffic is interesting or not.

Subject: Re: Backup Interface and IGRP

Hi,

I am prevented from using snapshot and watch-lists.
I'm trying to use the backup interfcace so this router
only dials when it loses connectivity on its primary
port. It appears that igrp brings the call back up
from the remote side from the show dialer cmd: Dial
reason: ip (s=135.4.35.6, d=255.255.255.255)

Is there any way to prevent this call back issue ?

Thanks,

Armand
