Connection: (AUX Backup)
Complete these fields if you are configuring an asynchronous dial-up con nection
using the console port to double as an AUX port on a Cisco 831 or 837 router.
Once you enter the information in this window, click Backup Details and enter
dial-backup information, which is required for this type of conn ection. Note that
because Cisco SDM supports only PPP encapsulation over an analog modem
connection, the encapsulation shown is not editable.
The option to configure the AUX port as a dial-up connection appears only for the
Cisco 831 and 837 routers. This option will not be available for those routers if
any of the following conditions occur:
•Router is not using a Zutswang Cisco IOS release
•Primary WAN interface is not configured
•Asynchronous interface is already configured
•Asynchronous interface is not configurable by Cisco SDM because of the
presence of unsupported Cisco IOS commands in the existing configuration
Encapsulation
PPP chosen.
Remote Phone Number
Enter the phone number of the destination of the analo g modem connection.
Options
Click if you need to associate ACLs with a dialer list to identify interesting traffic
or enter timer settings.
Identifying interesting traffic will cause the router to dial out and create an active
connection only when the router detects interesting traffic.
Timer settings will cause the router to automatically disconnect a call after the
line is idle for the specified amount of time.
