Hi Group,
I am going over IE lab 11 (again), and am confused with the Dialer watch
setup.
Within this lab there is a requirement to watch a a number of routes
(150.1.3.3 being one of them) and bring up the ISDN if the routes are lost.
So far so good, however there is a dialer map statement i.e
dialer map ip 187.1.45.5 name Rack1R5 broadcast xxxxxx .............(normal
map statement)
dialer map ip 150.1.3.3 name Rack1R5 broadcast
xxxxxx................(additional map statment for dialer watch)
Why is this needed? Does this not cause more problems.
I have found that once the dialer watch is invoked because of the lost route
the ISDN link starts to flap.
After doing a an ip route debug it appears that the routing table will
install the 150.1.3.3 route as directly connected route because of the
dialer map statement. When the old route comes back on line, it is not
prefered because it is a route known via a routing protocol, however the
link will idle timeout after a set period, but will immediately come up
again because of the loss of the now directly connected route.
Any pointers appreciated
Simon
