Dialer keyword (Optional) in snapshot client is used if the client router
has to dial up the remote router in the absence of regular traffic.

when using BRI / DDR interfaces, the sequence number is in the range from 1
to 254, inclusive, that uniquely identifies a dialer map. (it aint priority
or anything like that)

I have seen that in some cases (some IOS versions) when usign dialer
profiles, it doesnt allow you to specify dialer map snapshot on dialer
interfaces, it works fine without that as well.

So in essence there is no relation between 'dialer' keyword with snapshot
client & dialer map snapshot sequence number.

ps : the dialer keyword with Snapshot Server seems to be some IOS bug /
mistake, I have never found anywhere if / how it works, never able to make
it work
.
