No. If you use the backup interface command set, and then use the 'shut'
command on the primary interface, the backup will never kick off. The
router knows you were trying to be sneaky, so it ignores you. :)

Try changing your LMI type or unplugging the cable if you're by your router.
That will cause the L2 portion to go down and kick off the backup.

Hi there,

I'm pretty sure there has to be a layer 1 error
