Routing across Modem Lines 6-7
Configuring the Dialing Access Server
Step 2 Associate a network to the RIP routing process:
Woodstock(config-router)# network 172.16.0.0
Woodstock(config-router)# exit
Woodstock(config)#
Step 3 Create a static default route. A static default route points to the answering access server’s
IP network number (in this case 172.16.10.0) via the next hop (in this case 172.16.10.1).
Static default routes are required because dynamic routes are lost when the link is down.
Woodstock(config)# ip route 172.16.10.0 255.255.255.0 172.16.10.1
Step 4 Configure a second default route, because the asynchronous interface is unnumbered
(refer to the section “Configuring the Asynchronous Interface Dialing the DDR Call”). A
second static route is needed to tell the local access server (Woodstock) how to get to the
device at address 172.16.10.1. A mask of 255.255.255.255 is used to specify that this
route is a host address.
Woodstock(config)# ip route 172.16.10.1 255.255.255.255 async1
Configuring the Ethernet Interface 0 for the Dialing Access Server
Perform the following task to configure the Ethernet interface 0 on the access server initiating
outgoing DDR calls (Woodstock):
Assign an IP address to the Ethernet interface 0:
Snoopy(config-router)# interface Ethernet0
Snoopy(config-if)# ip address 172.16.20.1 255.255.255.0
Configuring the Asynchronous Interface Dialing the DDR Call
Perform the following steps to configure the asynchronous interface initiating DDR calls:
Step 1 Configure the asynchronous interface through which you need to place calls as IP
unnumbered to conserve IP addresses and assign the IP address for Ethernet interface 0
to it.
Woodstock(config-if)# interface async1
Woodstock(config-if)# ip unnumbered Ethernet0
Step 2 Encapsulate PPP on the interface.
Woodstock(config-if)# encapsulation ppp
Step 3 Specify asynchronous dynamic routing on the interface. The async dynamic routing
command allows routing protocols to be run over the asynchronous interface to resolve
IP routes dynamically. If the command is omitted, static routes can still be used.
Woodstock(config-if)# async dynamic routing
Step 4 Specify the IP address of opposite access server’s (Snoopy’s) Ethernet interface 0 as a
default IP address:
Woodstock(config-if)# peer default ip address 172.16.10.1
