permanent ISDN connection
quick question - We're setting up a temp. ISDN connection and the powers that be want a PERMANENT (not DDR) connection on a Cisco 2500 (ios 11.2) I've got a BRI and Dialer setup (which also aren't working, but that's another story) - is there a default - like Dialer idle-timeout 0 that will keep an ISDN connection up in a permanent state for a few weeks? I know it doesn't make sense, but they're paying for it, so no skin off my nose. CA _ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.

Permanent ISDN Connection
Try the config below to get the Dialer and the BRI working. Just increase the Dialer idle-timeout to a larger number than 300 (5 min), 30 minutes or even higher. Depending on the interesting traffic crossing, this should keep the line up all the time as I am sure than during business hour someone will be sending traffic to the link within the set time frame. Hope that helps.

RE: permanent ISDN connection
you can make it stay up with a high dialer idle timeout and make your interesting traffic whatever your routing protocol updates are. i.e. interface bri0 dialer-group 1 .. .. .. .. dialer-list 1 protocol ip permit Rip updates should then cause the dialer idle timeout to reset. There must be an easier way to do this but for the life of me I cant think straight. I am now finishing while most of you are just starting.

mnn - static routes all the way on this router - not going to be possible - although I suppose the occasional broadcast might bring it up.

RE: permanent ISDN connection
It was recomended in a book I recently read to set the dialer-idle timout to 2147843, for permanent connections. Not sure if it works, I have not tried it. Just going by the book.

RE: permanent ISDN connection
I am doing this to an ISP. I have turned up NTP which sends an "interesting" packet every 60 seconds. This has worked fairly well for me and the load imposed on the router and circuit is minimal.

RE: permanent ISDN connection
You could probably use one of those "tickler" programs that sometimes you have to do if your dialup ISP likes to drop you when there's been no activity.
