Dialer interface issue.

Hi All,

I have three interfaces as follows:

interface Dialer1

description DIALER INTERFACE TO Branch

ip address 172.16.254.62 255.255.255.252

encapsulation ppp

dialer pool 1

dialer remote-name branch

dialer string xxxxxx

dialer-group 1

ppp authentication chap pap

interface Dialer2

description DIALER INTERFACE TO Region

ip address 172.16.254.106 255.255.255.252

encapsulation ppp

delay 6000

dialer pool 1

dialer remote-name region

dialer idle-timeout 60

dialer string xxxxxxxxx

dialer string xxxxxxxxx

dialer string xxxxxxxxx

dialer string xxxxxxxxx

interface Dialer3

description DIALER INTERFACE TO Central

ip address 172.22.16.62 255.255.255.252

encapsulation ppp

delay 12000

dialer pool 1

dialer remote-name central

dialer idle-timeout 30

dialer string xxxxxxx

dialer-group 1

no cdp enable

ppp authentication chap

access-list 111 deny eigrp any any

access-list 111 deny udp any any eq snmp

access-list 111 deny udp any any eq snmptrap

access-list 111 permit ip any any

Dialer-list 1 protocol ip list 111

Question: When I create interesting traffic which Dialer will cause dial ? Iam using EIGRP. When leased line is down none of the above dialers are dialing out.why?

Can anybody help me out??

Thanks.

Hello Suresh,

which interfaces are you backing up ? Can you post the entire configuration of your router ?

Regards,

GP

Hi GP,

Entire Router configuration is posted.My question is when leased line goes down, Which dialer interface is activated and why?

Requirement is : If Dialer1 fails to connect to branch, then Dialer2 should dial to Region, and incase both dialers fail ultimately Dialer3 should dial to Central Office. How can I achieve this ??

Hi Suresh,

You don't have any floating static routes to send traffic to the dialers. The backup int command only keeps the dialer in standby mode and EIGRP is denied from being interesting traffic to trigger a call. Try adding a static route for a destination pointing to one of the three dialer interfaces or allow EIGRP as interesting.

Hope this helps.
