ahhh, I'll give you a free answer anyway! ;-)
Without making any assumptions except that the Frame Relay interface is
configured with a backup-interface statement that's pointed to a dialer, and
that all the routing is working okay, and that the dialer has a good
dialer-list, then the config would look similar to:
interface serial0/1
encapsulation frame-relay
backup interface dialer1
no backup load
no backup delay
interface dialer1
then the only thing that would bring the backup into play is the serial
going down/down momentarily.
If there IS a backup load statement on serial, then bandwidth percentage
over the first parameter of that command would initiate the dialer. Adjust
it higher or remove it.
If there's no backup interface command on the serial interface, then a
floating static route is probably initiating the DDR. If an IGP is used
over the Frame Relay network then a route flap on the default route would
also start the dialing sequence.
Let's see... is there a link for you? nope, can't find one that's
appropriate.
