RE: FR Backup Over ISDN [7:71332]

Breif example... Your local T1 ciruit to your carrier is Up Up but.. when
you do a  sh frame-relay pvc your DLCI shows INACTIVE. Hence why the ISDN
backup interface command does not take effect since the interface is still
up.. even though your frame-relay is not working. This can be caused to
certain instability within the cloud.. and not to your local CO's
frame-switch... LMI's will exchange every 10 sec from your router to the
Frame-Switch and provide a Full PVC status every 60 sec.

HTH,

you need to configure dialer watch for this to work correctly.

Yes you are correct that backing up the main interface will not help 
if the remote side of the frame connection goes down, you will still be 
up up to your local switch.  since I think 10.2 or 3 you can backup the 
subinterface, it recognizes the PVC being down and will initiate you 
backup though I prefer triggering backups on loss of routes personally.

 It may not help much to back up the main interface because you could
 lose permanent virtual circuits (PVCs) without the main interface going
 down. Remember, the protocol is being exchanged with the local Frame
 Relay switch, not the remote router. 
 
 I quote this from the aforesaid Cisco link.
 
 Can somebody explain as to why it doesn't help much to back up the main
 interface and how does it lead to the loss of PVCs without the main
 interface going down. ??
