If you set "dialer idle-timeout" to X seconds then every X seconds the
router will check if the primary route is up or down.
"the primary link is checked again at the expiration of each idle timeout.
If the primary link remains down, the idle timer is reset. Since the router
should periodically check whether the primary link has been reestablished,
configure a small value for the dialer idle-timeout. When the primary link
is reestablished, the routing protocol will update the routing table and all
traffic should once again pass on the primary link. Since traffic will no
longer pass across the backup link, the idle timeout will expire and router
will deactivate the backup link."

Subject: lab 3 task 5.9
lab 3 task 5.9, with regards to dialer-watch/watch list, "in order to
minimize convergence time after a network failure, r4 should check for ip
reachability to r5's lo0 every 5 seconds.... the only thing in the solutions
manual i see that is 5 seconds i "dialer idle-timeout 5", but i don't think
that corresponds to this task i would think that this should be under the
watch-list, but the watch list says 'delay route check initial 120' any
ideas?
