Tweak eigrp metrics to make both ethernet and serial lines equal cost paths
in the mind of eigrp. then both paths should load into the routing table
since eigrp will do equal cost load balancing. If one of the paths fail,
the second will remain in the routing table and keep the route up and thus
keep the isdn from dialing.

hi,
the config is as you described bellow, despite having e0 as primary,
serial as secondry and ISDN as last option dialer-watch triggers ISDN
call right after e0 is anavailable. Although ISDN link is down again
after idle-timeout has expired because serial interface is prefered as
second option and also routes are installed in routing table. My
question was how to prevent dialer-watch to trigger ISDN call right
after E0 is down and serial is available as second option. By the way
I'm using EIGRP and Serial is a permanent link with HDLC enc.

it a frame-relay PVC? If you had something like this

have network xxxx in topology table(EIGRP) but route through e0
installed in routing table. When e0 no longer receives hello packets,
route through serial is installed and finally if PVC goes down then
there is no interface in routing table referencing xxxx dialer watch
noiw kicks the ISDN link to dial.
