Hi Jonathan,

If you point the floating static out the interface (dialer or BRI) and
configure the dialer or bri as a backup interface, the line protocol will be
down and the static route will disappear from the routing table. When the
dialer/bri comes up (if the main int fails) the static will be back in the
routing table and OSPF will advertise the default. Just need to make sure
that you don't use the keyword always after the default-information
originate command.

HTH,

Pete
