Hi Group question I am pondering and need answer. Thanks in advance.
 
dialer idle-timeout inbound
It is used to reset the timer based on the incoming traffic that matches
the interesting traffic defined by dialer list. When it is in default
setting

dialer-group
 
Used to define interesting traffic that is outgoing to trigger the line.

 
 
dialer watch
 
To activate the line when the watched route is missing.
 
First question
The interesting traffic definition is outgoing. The incoming traffic
might not match it. e.g
 
dialer-list 1 protocol permit ip list 101
access-list 101 permit icmp host 10.1.1.2 host 10.1.1.3 echo
 
Ping from host icmp 10.1.1.2 to 10.1.1.3 will trigger the line. If the
dialer idle-timeout is inbound. Will the echo-reply reset the
idle-timeout timer?
 
Second question.
Watch group might trigger the line when the route is lost. However, if
there is no interesting traffic in the line, will the line be brought
down?
 
Third question
Is the dialer timeout timer is maintained by the calling router or the
called router?
