what does this configuration mean?
HI all what does this configuration mean? Router(config)#interface S0 Router(config-if)#backup interface bri0 Does it mean that if S0 as a primary link fails, then this So interface will become bri0 interface as an backup link? or it means that another physical interface (here,bri0) will be activated while S0 is down? Which one is a correct interpretation? Thanks in adv. jeongwoo __ Do You Yahoo!? Send instant messages & get email alerts with Yahoo!

Re: what does this configuration mean?
Tt means that another physical interface (here,bri0) will be activated while S0 is down. It can alos be used with Dialer interfaces, so that if you have multiple BRI, it can bring up multiple channels.

Re: what does this configuration mean?
It means that if your serial link goes down, the router will want to bring up the ISDN. The commands are here (frame relay using the bri0 to back up): http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/access/acs_mod/1600/1600swcf /frmrelay.htm#xtocid563825 Watch the word wrap and this is one of those links with an anchor so scroll up to the top of the page for the full nitty gritty. A serial interface can not "become" a BRI interface.

Re: what does this configuration mean?
The configuration is the first step in making the bri 0 a backup interface to the serial 0. However the configuration is incomplete. You can use the bri 0 to backup the serial if it goes down, therefore it will be replacing the serial. You can also have the bri 0 assist the serial if a specified load is exceededon the serial. This load would be set by you, the administrator. Therefore the bri 0 could replace the serial, if it were to go down or it can assist the serial if there is too much traffic on the line. These are choices for you to make. Hope I helped. -Jay jeongwoo park wrote: > HI all > what does this configuration mean? > > Router(config)#interface S0 > Router(config-if)#backup interface bri0 > > Does it mean that if S0 as a primary link fails, then > this So interface will become bri0 interface as an > backup link? > or > it means that another physical interface (here,bri0) > will be activated while S0 is down? > > Which one is a correct interpretation? > > Thanks in adv. > > jeongwoo > > __ > Do You Yahoo!? > Send instant messages & get email alerts with Yahoo!
