Enterasys Networks X-PeditionTM manual Sample Dialer Configuration, Configuring the Map Class

Implementing Dial Services

Configuring the Map Class

1.Enter map-class dialer classname to create a map-class identifier.

This value must match the classname value you specified in the dialer string command.

2.Enter dialer wait-for-carrier-timeseconds to set the interval the local modem waits to answer the call.

Configuring the Physical Interface for the Dialer Interface

1.Enter interface serial card/port to specify the interface.

2.Enter encapsulation ppp to set PPP encapsulation.

3.Enter dialer pool-membernumber priority <priority> to assign the interface as a member of the pool that the dialer interface will use.

Priority is an optional value you can set to prioritize this pool-member in the pool ranging from 0 - 255. The number range is 0 - 255.

Sample Dialer Configuration

The CLI commands listed below are those used to configure dialer interface 0 in Figure 10-4on page 10-8.

Configure interface dialer 0 with two dial strings and map classes for each:

XSR(config)#interface dialer 0

XSR(config-if<D0>)#ip address 10.1.1.1 255.0.0.0

XSR(config-if<D0>)#encapsulation ppp

XSR(config-if<D0>)#dialer pool 6

XSR(config-if<D0>)#dialer string 4161234456 class toronto

XSR(config-if<D0>)#dialer string 9872312345 class andover

XSR(config-if<D0>)#no shutdown

Configure a map-class named Toronto with a 20-second wait for the dial tone:

XSR(config)#map class dialer toronto

XSR(config-map-class)#dialer wait-for-carrier-time 20

Configure a map-class named Andover with a 30-second wait for the daily tone:

XSR(config)#map class dialer andover

XSR(config-map-class)#dialer wait-for-carrier-time 30

Configure a backup link for dial purposes with priority 200:

XSR(config)#interface serial 1/1

XSR(config-if<S1/1>)#dialer pool 6 priority 200

XSR(config-if<S1/1>)#no shutdown

Configure a backup link for dial purposes with priority 140:

XSR(config)#interface serial 1/2

XSR(config-if<S1/2>)#dialer pool 6 priority 140

XSR(config-if<S1/2>)#no shutdown
