Hello all! I have some BSD-based gateway & router servers which are connected via X.21 and PPP links using the Cyclades PC300 router cards. That's fine. My question: How do I provide dial-up based backup in case one of the fixed lines should go down? For example, Cisco 1600-series routers can be configured with a BRI interface which will automatically dial and connect in the event of failure in the Serial interface. But living in an exchange-rate challenged country, I need to find a cheaper (than Cisco) way of acheiving a similar result. I don't mind doing some RTFM, but I'm not quite sure where to find the right M. Point me at it please! :) Regards, Patrick O'Reilly.
