Parameter: Backup Mode
Path: Dialup > Backup Circuits > PPP > Primary Circuit Definition
Default: Master
Options: Master

Slave
Function: Determines which router initiates dialing to establish a backup connection if the
primary circuit fails.
Instructions: Accept the default, Master, if you want the router to initiate dialing. The router
at the other end must be set to Slave so that it waits until the master router
initiates the call. Only one router on the link can serve as the master router. If
both are set to Master, they may try to initiate a call simultaneously, resulting in
a collision on the network.
If you change the Backup Mode parameter from Master to Slave, Site Manager
displays the Caller Resolution Info window, prompting you to make a caller
resolution table entry for the circuit. By requiring a table entry, Site Manager
ensures that you identify the remote master router.The local router can then
verify the master router’s identity and accept the incoming calls. Refer to the
appropriate parameter descriptions for this window.
