ISDN PPP Multilink dialer load threshold

hallo

I have a main office with a cisco 2600 router connected to BRI interfaces.

Remote offices use cisco761 router to connect to main office cisco 2600.

The main office router must only respond to remote calls.

I need bandwidth on demand so when the load on a B channel passes a threshold a second B channel will be used.

* This is part of the cisco2600 config

!

interface BRI1/0

description 'connected to Bassano -Set'

no ip address

no ip directed-broadcast

encapsulation ppp

dialer pool-member 1

isdn switch-type basic-net3

isdn send-alerting

no cdp enable

ppp authentication chap

ppp multilink

interface Dialer1

description 'connected to Bassano'

ip address 192.168.101.1 255.255.255.0

no ip directed-broadcast

dialer remote-name bassano761

dialer pool 1

dialer idle-timeout 300

bandwidth ?

dialer load-threshold ?

dialer load-interval 30

demand 1 threshold=0 duration=1 source=lan

demand 2 threshold=48 duration=1 source=both

timeout 1 threshold=0 duration=500 source=lan

timeout 2 threshold=48 duration=300 source=both

WHICH ARE THE VALUES FOR THE FOLLOWING PARAMETERS IF I WHANT THAT THE SECOND B CHANNEL GOES UP WHEN THE FIRST REACHES 60Kbps ?

bandwidth ?

dialer load-threshold ?

demand 2 threshold= ? duration=1 source=both

timeout 2 threshold= ? duration=300 source=both

THANKs

For 60% load, your threshold should be set to 255 * 0.6 = 1531. I dont think you need to set bandwidth as well.

Thanks.

You need to enter following command if you want the first link loaded to (threshold=60) 60kbps for continuously 300 secs (duration=300) before 2nd b channel will be dialed.

demand 2 threshold=60 duration=300 source=both

Here is the link which explains how to use that command and what are thoes parameters means.

Ok for the cisco760 but for cisco2600 dialer interface what are the values for:

- bandwidth

- dialer load-threshold

Can I use "bandwidth 128" and "dialer load-threshold 120" (60*255/128) ?
