RE: Legacy DDR with ISDN callback - how to restrict server to

What problem would it create if the dialer idle-timeout is 0?

If you omit the dialer-list and/or dialer-group the router will not be
able to initiate a call as expected but the router will drop every call
in 120 seconds due to the fact that there is no interesting traffic. The
dialer idle-timeout will need to be set to 0 to stop the router from
dropping the call due to the lack of interesting traffic.

Hi Brian,

If you set the dialer idle-timeout to 0, how will it work when it gives
a
callback? would'nt it create problems???

Will it not work just by omitting the dialer-group/list command?

On the other hand when you do not specify the intersting traffic, what
will
reset the idle-timeout during th callback call????

On the callback server set the dialer idle-timeout to 0 and do not
configure a dialer-list and/or dialer-group. This way the callback
server can never initiate a call or drop a call due to the lack of
interesting traffic.

Old problem, I checked archives, No result :(
R2 - callback client; R3 callback server; Legacy DDR. Callback works
fine.
No AAA server.
 
Question: How to prevent R3 to do first call to R2 and to keep callback
client/server setup ?
 
One possible solution - to remove "dialer-group"
statement from R3 and to put very high "dialer idle-timeout " - this is
ugly.
 
If I remove dial-string from dialer map on R3 it will never call back.
How
to tell R3 required string to call back in this case ?
