AS5200 ISDN idle timeout problem
Hi,

I have an AS5200 (yea, I know) running IOS 12.1.20. It's accepting ISDN
calls fine, but persistently disconnects them 2 minutes after connecting
regardless of line activity. Reason for disconnection in radius accounting
logs is "Idle-Timeout".

The idle timeout period is not being set from anywhere in the NAS's
configuration (that I can see), and neither from radius. If I do a "show
interface" on a connected interface it does register line activity in the
"Last input" and "Last output" counters. However, the idle timeout counter
is never reset and eventually runs down to 0 when the line is disconnected.

Anyone know why this is happening?


Thanks,
Aragon

120 is the default timeout ;-)
This is why it is not shown....

Hi,

it seems like you forgot to identify the dialer-list command.
There is no definition of interesting traffic, therefore after
a timeout of 120s, the isdn line is disconnected.

For Example:

Int dialer 2
..
..
dialer-group 1


dialer-list 1 protocol ip permit

Regads,
Ahmad Cheikh-Moussa

RE: AS5200 ISDN idle timeout problem [ In reply to ]
This is a fun one...try adding dialer idle-timeout 500000

interface Serial0:23
ip unnumbered Loopback0
encapsulation ppp
no ip route-cache


dialer idle-timeout 500000


dialer-group 1
isdn switch-type primary-ni
isdn tei-negotiation first-call
isdn incoming-voice modem
peer default ip address pool default
no fair-queue
no cdp enable
ppp authentication pap secure
ppp multilink
hold-queue 75 in
