Cisco IOS DDR Dialer Watch-List (VRF) issues

dneggers1

Hi Guys,

We have a Dial Backup ISDN (DDR) configured on all our WAN Sites, with a Watch-List, in case of our WAN service Failure.

This has been working perfectly until recently when we upgraded our IOS :

From - c3845-advipservicesk9-mz.124-9.T5.bin

To - c3845-advipservicesk9-mz.124-24.t2.bin

Since this upgrade, the Watch-list command no longer works with VRF, so it is continually dialing up, even though the "Watched Route" is in the VRF Routing table.

We have proved this by watching a Route in the "Default" VRF, and it works fine.


So in Short, 124-24.t2 is bugged and does not work for the following command anymore :

dialer watch-list 1 ip 10.2.0.0 255.255.255.0 vrf DITR-DATA

Is there any extra config we need to enter for this to work on the new IOS?

Please see config & also the current "Wathced Route in the Routing table"

Dion,

I am experiencing the same thing, did you ever figure out a work around or a release that doesn't have this bug?
