ISDN call

My remote router is configured to initiate a ISDNdialup to my local router in event of data cct failure.This works as expected. I need to be able to use ISDN to dial INTO the remote router on some occasions even when the data cct is up. I know my authentication is correct but I can't get it working. Would the remote router use their dialer string even if the call is being placed from the other side?

*************************************************************************

Acts like the remote is configured to use "backup interface" to trigger the call, in which case as long as the primary link is active, the dialer is down and cannot be used to answer (or place) any calls. You could change the backup mode to "dial on demand" or "dialer watch" or try defining a separate, independent dialer for dial in. Depending upon how many systems may be dialing in, you may want to consider a virtual template rather than a dialer per caller.

Good luck and have fun!
