Exactly my point! Any Cisco listeners out here .
Dialer watch is a solid backup for a 24/7 client
but for 8x5x5 clients it is not.

When the client gets the $500 bill for being up
18 hours on a Sunday due to a DAX eating itself,
it is not, "Great Job" that I typically hear in response.

How about an option where the idle time out, after
a dialer-watch event, sets a flag converting to DDR
then clears the flag when the route comes back?
