Using ODR with Dialer Mappings

For interfaces that specify dialer mappings, CDP packets will make use of dialer map configuration statements that pertain to the IP protocol. Because CDP packets are always broadcast packets, these dialer map statements must handle broadcast packets, typically through use of the dialer map broadcast keyword. The dialer string interface configuration command may also be used.

On DDR interfaces, certain kinds of packets can be classified as interesting. These interesting packets can cause a DDR connection to be made or cause the idle timer of a DDR interface to be reset. For the purposes of DDR classification, CDP packets are considered uninteresting. This classification occurs even while CDP is making use of dialer map statements for IP, where IP packets are classified as interesting.
