Without dialer-group 1, isdn line flaps every 120 seconds.

Thanks for your inputs. My dialer wiatch kicked in after the serial went
down.
Now problem is that the backup interface doesn't go down after the serial
interface comes back up.
Here is the config and debug dialer, debug dialer event, and debug dialer
packet.
My dialer debug shows that the route watched by dialer watch is still down.

You should have a dialer map statement for the route you are watching.

Why don't you have a ospf demand circuit statement?
This should keep you from having to use access-list 101.

My dialer-watch is not working with/ without dialer-list/dialer-group.
But it works without access-list.

It is really weird. I have heard about some bugs on watch-list for a while.
I wonder if it is one of those.

Dwight,

The 1st problem is probably caused by the idle timeout on the far side.
Since it is not doing dialer watch, it will time out and drop the
connection. The dialer watch side will then bring it back up immediately.
The result is that every timeout interval, you connection will flap. The
solution is to set the idle timeout on the far side to 0, thereby disabling
it.

As far as demand-circuit and dialer-list, dialer watch doesn't care about
interesting traffic, so you do not need dialer-group or dialer-list. When
dialer watch goes active, it brings the connection up and keeps it up until
there is a route to one of the watched routes through another interface.
Dialer-group and dialer-list can still be used, but the effect they have
will be to bring up the circuit when dialer watch is not active.
