PRI to BRI using dialer pool-member 1

Hi,

I am facing some typical problem in dialer-pool 1 command.

We are having PRI line at one location and at another location we are having BRI line. As usuval BRI to PRI dialup is used as a backup to serial leased line.

PRI configuration is

interface serial 1/1:15

ip unnumbered loopback 0

dialer pool-member 1

....

ip address loopback 0 172.24.10.1 255.255.255.0

and dialer configured is

dialer 1

dialer-pool 1

encap ppp

dialer caller 2717823

.....

Static routes are :

ip route Remote_Network Serial 0/0

ip route Remote_Network Dialer 1 100

Remote router configuration is

bri 1

dialer pool 1

dialer 0 ( as abckup up to serial link )

ip addrss 172.24.10.2 255.255.255.0

dialer pool-member 1

dialer string 253698

ip route Network_A serial 0

ip router Network_A dialer 0 100

In this configuration ISDN call is established and also authenticated but traffic is not routed.

But when I give command in main router's dialer one.

ip unnumbered loopback 0

immedialetly routing starts.

My query is when I have made dialer 1 as a member of dialer pool 1. it should pick up ip addrss of Serial1/1:15 that is nothing but loopback 0. why a separate command is required in dialer one ?

Thanx in advance

As well you shouldn't even give any ip address to PRI interface

It does not work like that. Pool membership is only used to determine from which physical interface a B-channel will be used by the dialer. You always have to assign an ip address to the dialer or otherwise ip processing will use this interface.
