Hey Chris,

Thanks for getting back to me on this.

I had thought of using ip unnumbered but I wonder how scalable this is.

If I use ip unnumbered, I assume this has to reference a loopback and NOT
the other dialer interface because if it did reference the other dialer
interface then both dialer interfaces couldn't be active at the same time.
Do you agree?

But, if it references a loopback and you only have 1 loopback, then you're
limited to a max of 2 dialer interfaces, right?

So, what would you do if you need 3 dialer interfaces?

Thanks again, Tim

Initial guess would be use backup interface, dialer list for echo and
echo-reply, and use ip unnumbered?

Hi guys,
 
Are there any ways to configure multiple dialer interfaces without
assigning an ip subnet to each dialer interface?
 
I'm trying to figure out how to fulfill the following requirements:
 
1. allowed the circuit to come up only if the primary path is down -
don't allow any traffic including pings to bring up the circuit if the
primary is up.
 
2. Allow pings to bring up the circuit for testing purposes.
 
3. Do not add any ip addresses
 
If someone has an example of how this could be configured, I'd be very
grateful.
 
TIA, Tim
