Brian,
I did have a dialer string and no dialer map. It sounds like you're saying that if you use a dialer map to dial out, you need to have a dialer map for all or some of the routes watched. What is the need for dialer maps. Why not just use dialer strings all the time?
Thanks,
Danny

Are you sure you weren't using a dialer string and not dialer maps? If you were using dialer maps and did not have any dialer maps for any of the watched routes can you send the config?
Here is the output from the "debug dialer" when using a physical BRI with dialer maps when there is no dialer map for a watched route.

Hi, dt. I've actually used dialer-watch without dialer-map statements for the watched routes. Try it. I'm not exactly sure why the dialer-map is used in some scenarios, but I got it to work correctly without them. Let me know how it works for you if you try it.

Hi,
Thanks for getting back to me. I found an example of what you were saying at this link: http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/software/ios120/12cgcr/d
ial_
c/dcdbakdw.htm
In this example, there are 3 routes listed in the dialer watch-list, 3.x.x.x, 4.x.x.x, and 5.x.x.x but there's only 2 dialer map statements
- 1 for the ip addr of the other side of the dialup link and 1 for 3.x.x.x
But, this is what I don't really understand. Why the dialer map for 3.x.x.x and not either 4.x.x.x or 5.x.x.x ?
Would it work just as well if nets 4.x.x.x or 5.x.x.x were used instead or did it have to be 3.x.x.x ?
Also, I have another topology I'm wondering about.
Suppose you have Frame Relay hub and spoke topology where r1 is the hub and is using a multipoint interface to reach r2, r3 and r4. All the routers have bri interfaces and I want to have r1 using dialer watch call any of the 3 spokes if their f/r interface goes down. Assume each spoke router has a loopback interface such as 2.x.x.x, 3.x.x.x, and 4.x.x.x and these are exchanged via the routing protocol.
In other words, I want r1 to call r2 if 2.x.x.x is no longer in the route table or call r3 if 3.x.x.x is no longer in the route table or call r4 if 4.x.x.x is no longer in the route table. In this case, do I need 3 dialer map statements - 1 pointing to each of the spoke routers? And, are there any other things I need to do to make this work?
Thank you so much. dt
