PPP Primary Circuit Parameters
Use the following descriptions as guidelines when you configure the primary
circuit parameters.
Parameter: Backup Pool ID
Default: None
Range: 1 to 255
Function: Identifies the backup pool for the primary circuit.
Instructions: Enter the ID number of the backup pool this circuit should use.
MIB Object ID: 1.3.6.1.4.1.18.3.5.1.4.5.1.5
Parameter: Backup Mode
Default: Master
Options: Master
|
Slave
Function: Determines which router site initiates dialing to establish a backup
connection if the primary circuit fails.
Instructions: Accept the default, Master, if you want the router to initiate dialing. The
router at the other end must be set to Slave, so it waits until the master
router initiates the call. Only one router on the link can serve as the master
router. If both are set to Master, they may try to initiate a call
simultaneously, resulting in a collision on the network.
Note that if you change the Backup Mode parameter from Master to
Slave, Site Manager displays the Caller Resolution Info window,
prompting you to make a caller resolution table entry for the circuit. By
prompting for a table entry, Site Manager ensures that you identify the
remote master router so that the local router verifies the master router’s
identity and accepts incoming calls. Refer to Chapter
12 for parameter
descriptions for this window.
