Figure 1-9. Example of Backup Pools, Lines, and Circuits
You can assign the same backup pool ID to more than one primary circuit. If you
want only one backup line dedicated to a primary circuit, then you should
configure only one line in a pool and assign that pool exclusively to that circuit.
Configuration of the Backup Circuit
The configuration of the backup circuit depends on the protocol for the primary
circuit. If Standard or PPP is running over the primary circuit, the backup circuit
inherits the primary’s network layer address configuration. Unlike the network
layer address configuration, the data link layer configuration can be unique.
If frame relay is running over the primary circuit, the backup circuit can inherit the
primary’s configuration or it can use its own configuration. When the frame relay
primary and backup circuit use the same configuration, it is called the shared
configuration. The shared configuration allows a backup circuit to use the same
network layer address as the primary circuit. The backup circuit’s data link layer
configuration (PVCs, DLCIs, and filters) can be the same or different from the
primary circuit.
