ISDN call at both end - can it be?

[aansatosorigin]

Hi all,

Currently, I design a ISDN WAN, which at both end router able to trigger ISDN call whenever the lease line is down. Let say, site A and site B. Lease line is connected in between. Whenever the lease line down, ISDN at site A must call to site B, BUT if the ISDN site A fail to dial, ISDN site B will definitely trigger the ISDN call to site A. I just wonder how to do this. Can anybody advise?? thank you.

Hi Dabdy,

Thanks for the link. By the way, how actually the second router (Kevin) can activate ISDN call to Krimson router although there's no any routing created whenever the Krimson router cant call to Keven router?? Hope you can explain technically. Really apprecite that.Thank you.

Hi,

Yes, you're right Kevin is missing static routes.

Because the author want to minimize the number of devices to test the scenario - In the example, 10.8.8.1/24 is configured in Kevin's Loopback0 interface while 10.7.7.1/24 is configured in Krimson's Loopback0 interface. Therefore Krimson have the following route entries...

ip classless

ip route 10.8.8.0 255.255.255.0 10.1.2.2

ip route 10.8.8.0 255.255.255.0 10.9.9.2 180

...and Kevin should have the following route entries...

ip classless

ip route 10.7.7.0 255.255.255.0 10.1.2.1

ip route 10.7.7.0 255.255.255.0 10.9.9.1 180
